Love Poems

Mild Is The Parting Year


Mild is the parting year and sweet
The odour of the falling spray;
Life passes on more rudely fleet,
And balmless is its closing day.

I wait its close, I court its gloom,
But mourn that never must there fall;
Or on my breast or on my tomb
The tear that would have soothed it all.
Walter Savage Landor

This lady is so wonderful! And she problbay has Czech ancestors. I am from Czech republic, so this makes me happy:)"Sokol" means "falcon" in Czech language, and it is a pretty common last name in CR. Also, many people from here have emigrated to USA in the past. I would love to know the story of her family...By the way, don t you think being a "falcon" suits her perfectly? :)
