you shall above all things be glad and young <br />For if you're young,whatever life you wear <br /> <br />it will become you;and if you are glad <br />whatever's living will yourself become. <br />Girlboys may nothing more than boygirls need: <br />i can entirely her only love <br /> <br />whose any mystery makes every man's <br />flesh put space on;and his mind take off time <br /> <br />that you should ever think,may god forbid <br />and (in his mercy) your true lover spare: <br />for that way knowledge lies,the foetal grave <br />called progress,and negation's dead undoom. <br /> <br />I'd rather learn from one bird how to sing <br />than teach ten thousand stars how not to dance<br /><br />Edward Estlin Cummings<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/you-shall-above-all-things/
