Good times are always mutual that is what makes good times.
Emily Dickinson
Image
As Summer into Autumn slips And yet we sooner say The Summer than the Autumn, lest We turn the sun away, And almost count it an Affront The presence to concede Of one however lovely, not The one that we have loved - So we evade the charge of Years On one attempting shy The Circumvention of the Shaft Of Life's Declivity.

I've heard it in the chilliest land And on the strangest sea Yet, never, in extremity, It asked a crumb of me.

Life is so rotatory that the wilderness falls to each, sometime.
Emily Dickinson
Image
The morns are meeker than they were, The nuts are getting brown The berry's cheek is plumper, The rose is out of town. The maple wears a gayer scarf, The field a scarlet gown. Lest I should be old-fashioned, I'll put a trinket on.

Pardon My Sanity In A World Insane

Nature is what we know - Yet have not art to say - So impotent our wisdom is To her simplicity.

You are nipping in the bud fancies which I let blossom. The shore is safer, but I love to buffet the sea - I can count the bitter wrecks here in these pleasant waters, and hear the murmuring winds, but oh, I love the danger!
