Quotes of the Day

A feeling of sadness and longing that is not akin to pain, and resembles sorrow only as the mist resembles the rain

• Henry Wadsworth Longfellow



Poems of the Day
  • Ella Wheeler Wilcox
    At The Hop
    by Ella Wheeler Wilcox
    'Tis time to dress. Dost hear the music surging Like sobbing waves that roll up from the sea? Yes, yes, I hear - I yield - no need of urging; I know your wishes, - send Lisette to me.
