The soul would have no
rainbow
Had the eyes no
tears.
John Vance Cheney
(1848-1922)
American poet
The liquid drops of tears
that you have shed
Shall come again, transform'd
to orient pearl
Advantaging their loan with
interest
Of ten times double gain
of happiness.
William Shakespeare
(1564-1616)
English playwright and
poet
Experience is a hard
teacher
because she gives the test
first
the lesson
afterwards.
Vernon Sanders law
We are all of us failures
-
at least the best of us
are.
J.M. Barrie (1860-1937)
Scottish writer

Take time to think
...
it is the source of
power
Take time to play
...
it is the secret of perpetual
youth
Take time to read
...
it is the fountain of
wisdom
Take time to pray
...
it is the greatest power
on earth
Take time to laugh
...
it is the music of the
soul
Take time to give
...
it is too short a day to
be selfish
Anonymus

I Want
You
I want you when the shades
of eve are falling
And purpling shadows drift across the land;
When sleepy birds to loving mates are calling
I want the soothing softness of your hand.
I want you when the stars shine up above me,
And Heaven's flooded with the bright moonlight;
I want you with your arms and lips to love me
Throughout the wonder watches of the night.
I want you when in dreams I still remember
The lingering of your kiss - for old times' sake -
With all your gentle ways, so sweetly tender,
I want you in the morning when I wake.
I want you when the day is at its noontime,
Sun-steeped and quiet, or drenched with sheets of rain;
I want you when the roses bloom in June-time;
I want you when violets come again.
I want you when my soul is thrilled with passion;
I want you when I'm weary and depressed;
I want you when in lazy, slumbrous fashion
my senses need the haven of your breast.
I want you when through field and wood I'm roaming;
I want you when I'm standing on the shore;
I want you when the summer birds are homing -
And when they've flown - I want you more.
I want you, dear, through every changing season;
I want you with a tear or with a smile;
I want you more than any rhyme or reason -
I want you, want you, want you - all the while
Arthur L. Gillom
Today &
Tomorrow
Look to this day ... In it
lies all the realities
and verities of
existence,
the bliss of
growth,
the splendor of
action,
the glory of
power.
For yesterday is but a
dream,
and tomorrow is only a
vision.
But today,
well-lived,
makes every yesterday
a dream of
happiness
and every
tomorrow
a vision of
hope.
Sanskrit proverb
Why? Why can't I cry?
I sometimes feel tears
welling up inside, just
trying to reach my eyes
but it doesn't even start
to erase those things I try to hide.
Can someone please tell me,
Why, why can't I cry?
Maybe because I 've heard it said,
men don't cry!"
If so, how can I rid my mind of the
guilt and lies?
My mind is in such a bind!
I think of the past and what I could've
done and this reminds me how much I
have hurt everyone. The thoughts knot
me up inside, so bad sometimes, I can't
sleep, I feel afraid.
If I were able to cry maybe some of
the tension would subside.
Until then I'll try to get by, but I still
want to know,
Why, why can't I cry?
