☂a great poem

I think that this poem is the most true thing that ever was written: Psyche with the candle Love which is the most difficult mystery Asking from every young one answers And most from those most eager and most beautiful- Love is a bird in a fist: To hold it hides it, to look at it lets it go. It will twist loose if you lift so much as a finger. It will stay if you cover it - stay but unknown and invisible. Either you keep it forever with fist closed Or let it fling, singing in fervor of sun and in song vanish. There is no answer other to this mystery. -Archibald MacLeish Another great poem is The Highwayman but I am not willing to write it all out to you because it is eightteen quatrains long! So look it up on the internet!
yours,
a dancer.
