WISE MEN SAY

No matter what side of an argument you’re on, you always find some people on your side
that you wish were on the other side. - Jascha Heifetz

POETRY FOR PLEASURE

THE LITTLE CELANDINE
(William Wordsworth 1770-1850)

Pansies, lilies, kingcups, daisies,
Let them live upon their praises;
Long as there’s a sun that sets,
Primroses will have their glory;
Long as there are violets,
They will have a place in story;
There’s a flower that shall be mine,
‘Tis the little Celandine.
