Twenty-third Psalm
The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want. In lush meadows, he lays me down, beside tranquil waters, he leads me. He restores
my soul. He leads me on paths of justice for his name's sake. Though I walk in the valley overshadowed by death, I will fear
no evil, for you are with me, your rod and your staff, they comfrort me. You prepare a table before me in full view of my
tormentors. You anointed my head with oil, my cup overflows. May only goodness and kindness pursue me all the days of my life,
and may I dwell in the House of the Lord for a very long time.

Ulysses
Come, my friends, 'tis not too late to seek a newer world
Push off and sitting well in order
Smite the sounding furrows;
For my purpose holds to sail beyond the sunset and the baths of all the Western stars until I die.
It may be that the gulfs will wash us down; it may be we shall touch the happy isles and see the great Achilles whom we
knew.
Though much is taken, much abides and though we are not now the strength which in old days moved earth and heaven, that
which we are, we are.
One equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not
to yield.
Alfred, Lord Tennyson

A Good Season
|
|
In Spring, hundreds of flowers
In Autumn, a harvest moon
In Summer, a refreshing breeze
In Winter, snow will accompany you
If useless
things do not hang in your mind,
Any season is a good season for you.

My Garden of
Eden
The Garden of Eden, was not a paradise equal to what I have discovered late in my life.
Here
in my home-mine more luxurious -I find my Garden of Eden
It is with my most precious treasure, the only woman
on earth whose body and soul I enjoy with complete intimacy, that I learn the meaning of love.
There is nothing
to mar the serenity of my Garden , only a bonding in which we shall become one.
And when I am alone with her
having become bone of my bone, and flesh of my flesh, I shall wait quietly for my Creator to withdraw from me the first breath
that he breathed into Adam, so that I , too, can return to the earth, from which he fashioned me.
