On some
Small
Slip of time

Out there
Among the stars

A young woman
Is standing
In evening
Under October leaves

Perhaps
If good or just lucky
I will go back
To that particular page

And dwell a while
A moment or two

Or even—maybe
Eternity

Yes.....this, exactly, should be part of eternity. We are thinking in the same vein today, aren't we?

Ed,

Yes we are . . .
You started it

Summum Bonum

All the breath and the bloom of the year
In the bag of one bee:
All the wonder and wealth of the mine
In the heart of one gem:

In the core of one pearl
All the shade and the shine of the sea:

Breath and bloom,
Shade and shine,
Wonder, wealth,
And how far above them
Truth, that’s brighter than gem,
Trust, that purer than pearl,

Brightest truth,
Purest trust in the universe,

All were for me
In the kiss of one girl.


Robert Browning
