"Or if a later sadder love be born,
Let this not look for grace beyond its scope,
But give itself, nor plead for answering truth -
A grateful Ruth tho' gleaning scanty corn."

re:"Autumn Violets" - I don´t quite agree with Rossetti. Maybe I´m not realistic enough, but I think there is no special age for love. But the poem is so beautifully worded, that I had to choose it.
"The Annoyer"-a charming poem about the nature of love.

re: Rossetti - agreed.
re: "Music...": "I feel the tremblings of all passions known
To ships before the breeze;
Cradled by gentle winds, or tempest-blown"... delightful

Against Pink- Lol! Interesting prose poem. Not my favorite color, but nothing against pink. Our minister of human rights of the last government uttered the famous sentence"Boys wear blue, girls wear pink". As a protest several celebrities started to wear pink shirts.

Enjoyed: "Untended as a wild of weeds and sand.
- Say, then, "I come!" and go, O women and men
Of palace, ploughshare, easel, counter, pen;
That scareless, scathless, England still may stand."
