Maxioms by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Ah, yes, the sea is still and deep,
All things within its bosom sleep!
A single step, read more
Ah, yes, the sea is still and deep,
All things within its bosom sleep!
A single step, and all is o'er,
A plunge, a bubble, and no more.
The holiest of all holidays are those
Kept by ourselves in silence and apart;
The secret anniversaries read more
The holiest of all holidays are those
Kept by ourselves in silence and apart;
The secret anniversaries of the heart,
When the full river of feeling overflows;--
The happy days unclouded to their close;
The sudden joys that our of darkness start
As flames from ashes; swift desires that dart
Like swallows singing down each wind that blows!
The greatest firmness is the greatest mercy
The greatest firmness is the greatest mercy
Talk not of wasted affection; affection never was wasted.
Talk not of wasted affection; affection never was wasted.
My Book and Heart
Shall never part.
My Book and Heart
Shall never part.
