Two Minds
Your mind and mine are such great lovers they Have freed themselves from cautious human clay, And on wild clouds of thought, naked together They ride above us in extreme delight; We see them, we look up with a lone envy And watch them in their zone of crystal weather That changes not for winter or the night.
LE JARDIN DES TUILERIES by Oscar Wilde This winter air is keen and cold, And keen and cold this winter sun, But round my chair the children run Like little things of dancing gold.
Sometimes about the painted kiosk The mimic soldiers strut and stride, Sometimes the blue-eyed brigands hide In the bleak tangles of the bosk.
And sometimes, while the old nurse cons Her book, they steal across the square, And launch their paper navies where Huge Triton writhes in greenish bronze.
And now in mimic flight they flee, And now they rush, a boisterous band - And, tiny hand on tiny hand, Climb up the black and leafless tree.
Ah! cruel tree! if I were you, And children climbed me, for their sake Though it be winter I would break Into spring blossoms white and blue!
Cheers...my son would be happy just to get back what he paid for them...and I'm sure there must be lots of Prodigy fans out there without tickets who would love to see them live.....will try eBay!
Sorry Ive lost it a wee bit here methinks...did I post a Chris Rea link it was meant to be a Prodigy link? Oops! I do like him too but have never managed to see him live...yet....
theyre a bit punky...my son actually bought the tickets but his miserable boss wont give him the night off and Ive something else on that night or Id go.....its a sell out gig so Im sure they must have some fans out there who are desperate for tickets
Hello Rhianna.....well I might not have noticed that chivalry is still alive and well and living in Scotland....until I was standing in the queue at my local Co-op today and the gentleman in front of me was due to be served, but instead he turned to me and said you can go before me....I said to him och dont be daft its fine and youve only one thing to get anyway....and then he said to me...no really please you go first cos I cant stand to watch you struggle there with yer heavy basket....so I did and thanked him and thought...wow what a gentleman....I also have to add he was a handsome man in his 40s.....woohoo!! .... We need more men like him I say!!....

Hello Autumn...lovely poem....I posted this before but just wanted to remind myself of it...

Your mind and mine are such great lovers they
Have freed themselves from cautious human clay,
And on wild clouds of thought, naked together
They ride above us in extreme delight;
We see them, we look up with a lone envy
And watch them in their zone of crystal weather
That changes not for winter or the night.
