There Was A Time

There was a time when meadow, grove, and stream,
The earth, and every common sight,
To me did seem
Apparelled in celestial light,
The glory and the freshness of a dream.
It is not now as it hath been of yore;—
Turn wheresoe'er I may,
By night or day,
The things which I have seen I now can see no more.

Who Is This Sad Lad?

Who is this sad lad
Standing amid the daisies?
A Beauty lover.

عمري مش تلاتين

عمري مش تلاتين
ولا أربعين ولا حتى خمسين
‏عمري بيكبر وبيصغر مع كل كلمة حنين
أو كلمة قسوة تخلي القلب حزين

صلاح جاهين ~

Serenity

Serenely the swan
Through the placid misty lake
With elegance glides.

Now As I Was Young And Easy

Now as I was young and easy … - Sir Anthony Hopkins reads from Fern Hill by Dylan Thomas

Fresh Morning Dewdrops

Fresh morning dewdrops
From a red rose are dripping:
I’d love to sip them.
