“You can muffle…

“You can muffle the drum, and you can loosen the strings of the lyre, but who shall command the skylark not to sing?” ~ Kahlil Gibran

Lots more rain…where I’m at. :-)

To Margo by Gavin Ewart

In life’s rough-and-tumble

you’re the crumble on my apple crumble

and the fairy on my Christmas tree!

In life’s death-and-duty

you’ve the beauty of the Beast’s own Beauty–

I feel humble as a bumble-bee!

 

In life’s darkening duel

I’m the lighter, you’re the lighter fuel–

and the tide that sways my inland sea!

In life’s meet-and-muster

you’ve the lustre of a diamond cluster–

a blockbuster–just a duster, me!
