Beauty Denied Would that you were honestly right, and your beauty was not in ev'ry man's sight. But nay, I say, and not in flattery. Your beauty is quite plain to see, And has brightened many a dark night; So to prompt a lowly fool such as me to resort to entreaties on bended knee. I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realized, than lord among those without dreams and desires. -Khalil Gibran |

Hi again, Shadows. *sigh*, indeed. And it's a true story (well, all except the "bended knee" part. I'm too afraid of rejection to go that far!)! John I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realized, than lord among those without dreams and desires. -Khalil Gibran |
