I’m coming along with a bounding pace, To finish the work that Spring begun; I’ve left them all with a brighter face, The flowers in the vales through which I’ve run. I have hung festoons from laburnum trees, And clothed the lilac, the birch, and broom. I’ve waken’d the sound of humming bees, And deck’d all nature in brighter bloom. For this is my life, my glorious reign, And I’ll queen it well in my leafy bower; All shall be bright in my rich domain; I’m queen of the leaf, the bud, and the flower. — Summer, by Anon.

Holiday Time!!!!!

Ok my Lovelies,

I am heading out for a week’s holiday in a bit ( I haven’t had a holiday since last July) 

So I’m excited to go. 

I have been crazy busy at work and so I have not got things set up in a queue and I’m not binging my computer with me so I can’t even pull things up when I’m gone. 

I will try to check in when I can so please please please tag me in pretty things so that when I have a minute I can check them

Anyway I love you all and I know I will not be disappointed

xoxo

Ann

See you next weekend (or maybe sooner)!!!!

HAVE A GREAT TIME!!

Poems: The Legend of the Evening Star by Mihai Eminescu

The “Evening Star” (“Luceafărul”) by Mihai Eminescu, a 98 stanzas long poem about the impossible love between immortal Evening Star and a beautiful mortal princess set the world record for the Longest Love Poem in 2009.  The Legend of the Evening Star is a story about a young princess who prayed to the evening star each night. The evening star falls in love with her and is willing to give up his immortality, but realizes that the pure love he has for the young girl cannot be sustained in the mortal world.  
But he falls not as he did once   From his height into swells:   -“What matters thee, clod of dust, if   ‘Tis me or some one else?
You live in your sphere’s narrowness   And luck rules over you -   But in my steady world I feel   Eternal, cold and true!”
