Oh what a wondeful post you have share...Dear Cait,<br /><br />Oh what a wondeful post you have shared with us, thank you.<br /><br />When I was nearing twenty I had a friend who introduced me to Poetry by way of Donne, I had not until then read Poetry before, and from then on I have always loved Poetry, and Donne was such a romantic like me, I love his Poems.<br /><br />The Poet looks very much like the song artist indeed Cait, and such a wonderful voice.<br /><br />Thank you for the Poems and Songs Cait, your posts are like a breath of fresh air to me.<br /><br />xxCAMILLAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04741990891794651299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1259513454241506815.post-38030488276933498812009-06-02T14:36:56.923-07:002009-06-02T14:36:56.923-07:00I remember a young man, a long time ago, quoting '...I remember a young man, a long time ago, quoting 'Licence my roving hands and let them go....' and being terribly impressed and a bit embarrassed.

It's pretty rough going, as it is about an academic who is dying of cancer. She is a scholar of Donne. Intense, but very real and moving. <br /><br />Thanks for all the lovely words here today. And I wish you a lovely weekend.
