Happy Valentine to Her and to Him


Must, bid the Morn awake!
Sad Winter now declines,
Each bird doth choose a mate;
This day's Saint Valentine's.
For that good bishop's sake
Get up and let us see
What beauty it shall be
That Fortune us assigns.
~Michael Drayton

Oh, if it be to choose and call thee mine, love, thou art every day my Valentine! ~Thomas Hood


Many are the starrs I see, but in my eye no starr like thee. ~English saying used on poesy rings

Must, bid the Morn awake!
Sad Winter now declines,
Each bird doth choose a mate;
This day's Saint Valentine's.
For that good bishop's sake
Get up and let us see
What beauty it shall be
That Fortune us assigns.
~Michael Drayton

Tell me how many beads there are
In a silver chain
Of evening rain,
Unravelled from the tumbling main,
And threading the eye of a yellow star: -
So many times do I love again.

And throw away the key.

Then to that twenty, add a hundred more;
A thousand to that hundred; so kiss on,
To make that thousand up a million;
Treble that million, and when that is done,
Let's kiss3
afresh, as when we first begun.

The age might just take you by surprise.  It did me.  Stay with this -- the answer is at the end.  It will blow you away. One evening a grandson was talking to his grandfather about current events.

"Ignorance" - There is nothing more frightening than ignorance in action.- Goethe

Abraham Lincoln: It is true that you may fool all of the people some of the time; you can even fool some of the people all of the time; but you can't fool all of the people all of the time. Albert Einstein: Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe. Amos Bronson Alcott: To be ignorant of one's ignorance is the malady of the ignorant.
