OK, the Poll Queen is back on her throne (although I get the impression that most people don't visit Poll-Land too often)(Yorick, did you say you wanted to live in Poll Land? http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...miles/hihi.gif )
Anyway, please give us your favorite poem or excerpt of a poem!
The Poll Queen is truly compassionate: as a poetry lover she will understand if you absolutely HAVE TO post more than one quote...

I like Pablo Neruda: This poem is called In my Sky at Twlight

In my sky at twilight you are like a cloud
and your form and colour are the way I love them.
You are mine, mine, woman with sweet lips
and in your life my infinite dreams live.

The lamp of my soul dyes your feet,
the sour wine is sweeter on your lips,
oh reaper of my evening song,
how solitary dreams believe you to be mine!

You are mine, mine, I go shouting it to the afternoon's
wind, and the wind hauls on my widowed voice.
Huntress of the depth of my eyes, your plunder
stills your nocturnal regard as though it were water.

You are taken in the net of my music, my love,
and my nets of music are wide as the sky.
My soul is born on the shore of your eyes of mourning.
In your eyes of mourning the land of dreams begin.

Ehm http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...es/biggrin.gif

William Shakespeare in MacBeth:

<font color="gray">
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time.
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle.
Life's but a walking shadow; a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more; it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.</font>

If you can understand what Shakespeare was on about, you are on your way to understanding the human race.
