I cling to words or phrases which seem to ring true

Wonderful a fistful of snow in the mouths
of men suffering summer heat
Wonderful the spring winds
for mariners who long to set sail
And more wonderful still the single sheet
over two lovers on a bed. 

I like quoting ancient verses when the occasion is apt. I remember most of what I hear, and I listen all day but sometimes I do not know how to fit everything together. When this happens I cling to words or phrases which seem to ring true.

      1. There is book father and daughter wrote together, Titian: Nymph and Shepherd (with Katya Berger)… Actually I read all his books, but this one what I loved more. I am sure you like too.
