And the salmon sings in the street.

Is folded and hung up to dry
And the seven stars go squawking
Like geese about in the sky."W.H. Auden
And we will all the pleasures prove
That hills and valleys, dales and fields,
Or woods or steepy mountain yields.
And we will sit upon the rocks,
And see the shepherds feed their flocks
By shallow rivers, to whose falls
Melodious birds sing madrigals...."From "The Passionate Shepherd to His Love," by Christopher Marlowe
If man were loved by wife, then thee;
If ever wife was happy in a man,
Compare with me, ye women, if you can.
I prize thy love more than whole mines of gold
Or all the riches that the East doth hold.
My love is such that rivers cannot quench,
Nor ought but love from thee, give recompense.
My love is such I can no way repay,
The heavens reward the manifold, I pray.
Then while we live, in love let's so persever
That when we live no more, we may live ever."From "To My Dear and Loving Husband," by Anne Bradstreet

What would false be without true
And what would I be without you?"Ara John Movsesian

And sweep me off my feet.

Desirable and true.
You inspire and impress me,
And that's why I love you!"Ara John Movsesian
Which grants us happiness and sorrow;
For the image of your beauty means
You are the angel of every morrow.
My love for you is a hidden emotion,
Which someday I may candidly express;
But till my lips reveal their intention,
My heart and soul must simply confess.
Never had I someone to call "my girl"
To me a word of eternal bliss;
For you posess the beauty of a pearl,
God's gift from heaven to kiss.
To marry me is beyond belief,
So happy that tears may fall;
Escaping loneliness is a relief,
When your beauty comes to call.
Though I inherit no poetic talents
To taunt you with ecstatic rhyme;
Just loving you is a humble patent
In this world of modern time."Levon Kalayjian
of another person is essential to your own."From "Stranger in a Strange Land," by Robert A. Heinlein
