Sorry

Yeah I know that is way too long since I posted.  I am really sorry. Part of the reason was I got sick (fever, sore throat, ect...) The other part of that reason was I got a job and that made me busier. Although it is only once a week, Tuesdays from 1-5 as a mother's helper, it is a squezze on my schedule. And then over Thanksgiving I didn't have internet. This blog is important to me and now that I am well and hopefully caught up on everything posting will resume as usual.  Here is a poem for the road.

Lord Byron

CLXXIII. "She walks in beauty, like the night"

SHE walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies,
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meets in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellow'd to that tender light	5
Which Heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impair'd the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress
Or softly lightens o'er her face,	10
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.
And on that cheek and o'er that brow
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,	15
But tell of days in goodness spent,—
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent Do you think the author is talking about her physical beauty or her character? Just a thought.
