A kiss

"A kiss, when all is said, what is it? A rosy dot placed on the "I" in loving; "Tis a secret told to the mouth instead of to the ear."

--Edmund Rostand

Musical interlude for an Autumn afternoon

Parsley to take away bitterness
Sage for strength
Rosemary for faithfulness, love, and remembrance
Thyme for courage

Leaves of Autumn...

"The winds will blow their own

freshness into you,

and the storms their energy,

while cares will drop away from you

like the leaves of Autumn."

-- John Muir
