    Fount

    Fount

    It must have been the day
    Or the night
    Midday
    Or midnight
    That the thought of you
    Crossed over me
    And I arose
    Unto my genuflection

    I'm in love with The Vinegar Man and Mr. Tanner, but be careful, it could just as easily be you.

    "Less is more." In the case of this poem, much, much more. I love it, and to compensate for its brevity I will read it over and over again.

    Welcome back!
