Songs Of Innocence: Night  (by: William Blake (1757 - 1827))
The sun descending in the west,
The evening star does shine;
The birds are silent in their nest,
And I must seek for mine.
The moon like a flower,
In heaven's high bower,
With silent delight
Sits and smiles on the night.

Songs Of Innocence: On Another's Sorrow  (by: William Blake (1757 - 1827))

And not be in sorrow too.
Can I see anothers grief,
And not seek for kind relief.

Success Is Counted Sweetest  (by: Emily Dickinson (1830 - 1886))

By those who ne'er succeed.
To comprehend a nectar

Summer  (by: Amy Lowell (1874 - 1925))
Some men there are who find in nature all
Their inspiration, hers the sympathy
Which spurs them on to any great endeavor,
To them the fields and woods are closest friends,
And they hold dear communion with the hills;
The voice of waters soothes them with its fall,
And the great winds bring healing in their sound.

Taffeta Torn Through  (by: Susan Dane)
We look for strong arms
to carry us. None forthcoming.
Or they come and go and
leave us more depleted in the going...
