Sois sage, ô ma Douleur, et tiens-toi plus tranquille.Tu réclamais le Soir; il descend; le voici:Une atmosphère obscure enveloppe la ville,Aux uns portant la paix, aux autres le souci.

Roll Me Over

Now, this is number one,And the fun has just begun.Roll me over, lay me down,And do it again.
Refreshment
© Adams Mary Electa
Hast thou had hours when life seemed empty all,And waste the garden thou wert set to till,Like tide-swept sands that only white and stillUnanswering lay beneath the heaven's gray pall?No ripening fruit to offer at His call,Discouragement hath waited on the will;And did some human voice, that bro't a thrillOut of the silence, on thy hearing fall:"I could not rest till I had come to seeAnd tell you how your life hath blessed mine own"?Burst a cool spring; the heart, refreshed and free,Went on its way under a smiling sun

And his boots creaked, and dirtied her smooth floor.
She hated him; and when he went away,
He wrote--I have the verses to this day:--

By no faint shame withheld from general gaze,
'Tis thus, my friend, we bask us in the blaze;
Where deeds, more surface-smooth than inly bright,
Snatch up a transient lustre from the light.
Ring Of Grass
© Sheldon Allan Silverstein
Rings of grass crowns of flowers they're gone gone gone gone
Furs that I woven of whispering hours gone gone gone gone
She's gone away where the rings are real
And the furs have warmth that a woman can feel
Round and round round goes the wheel
And she's gone gone gone gone gone

In schomer, when the leves spryng,
The bloschems on every bowe,
So merey doyt the berdys syng
Yn wodys merey now.

Now, sporting muse, draw in the flowing reins,
Leave the clear streams a while for sunny plains.
