To the Author's Portrait

 
...
To breathe in rural peace,
to hear the stream,

And think and feel as once the Poet felt.
Whate'er thy fate,
those features have not grown Unrecognised
through many a household tear
More prompt, more glad,
to fall than drops of dew
By morning shed around a flower half-blown;
Tears of delight, that testified
how true To life thou art,
and, in thy truth,
how dear!

-William Wordsworth, 1830.

I submitted a poem once to a prof in which I mentioned the words beauty and truth, and the guy had the audacity to say that I hadn't "earned" the right to write about truth and beauty.  Huh?  What a total ass.  LOL.

RYC:  Now you understand why I have such low opinions of "professors."  LOL.
