Yes, Please make this my home page!
But oh Melpomene! thy lyre of
woe--
To what a mournful pitch its
keys were strung,
And when thou badest its tones
of sorrow flow,
Each weeping Muse, enamoured,
o'er thee hung:
How sweet--how heavenly sweet,
when faintly rose
The song of grief, and at its
dying close
The soul seemed melting in the
trembling breast;
The eye in dews of pity flowed
away,
And every heart, by sorrow's
load opprest,
To infant softness sunk, as
breathed thy mournful lay.
~James G.

I like poetry. It's the stuff
that keeps me going. This area is a place for me to mention my favorite
poets and show you a bit of their work. None of it is mine, it belongs
to them, is copyright to them, all that... I prefer others' writing to
my own, in the end. If you want to see any of my poetry, I have some up
in the fanfic section.
