    I wrote a whole long ode to my cat (who is not dead yet) the other night in my head, right from when he was born to now. Its gone now though and wouldnt be the same as it was then lol.

    I write my dreams down the minute I get in work when Im at work, I have a folder full under my keyboard mat of mental dreams, I must bring it home and put it up on here for a laugh :oops: :lol:

    Cas

    Favorite of mine

    Christina Rossetti 1783 – 1854

    Remember me when I am gone away,
    Gone far away into the silent land;
    When you can no more hold me by the hand,
    Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
    Remember me when no more day by day.
    You tell me of our future that you plann’d:
    Only remember me; you understand
    It will be late to counsel then or pray.
    Yet if you should forget me for a while
    And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
    For if the darkness and corruption leave
    A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
    Better by far you should forget and smile
    Than that you should remember and be sad.

    The Song Of Wandering Aengus

    I went out to the hazel wood,
    Because a fire was in my head,
    And cut and peeled a hazel wand,
    And hooked a berry to a thread;
    And when white moths were on the wing,
    And moth-like stars were flickering out,
    I dropped the berry in a stream
    And caught a little silver trout.

    When I had laid it on the floor
    I went to blow the fire aflame,
    But something rustled on the floor,
    And some one called me by my name:
    It had become a glimmering girl
    With apple blossom in her hair
    Who called me by my name and ran
    And faded through the brightening air.

    Though I am old with wandering
    Through hollow lads and hilly lands.
    I will find out where she has gone,
    And kiss her lips and take her hands;
    And walk among long dappled grass,
    And pluck till time and times are done
    The silver apples of the moon,
    The golden apples of the sun.

    William Butler Yeats

    Who Goes With Fergus?

    Who will go drive with Fergus now,
    And pierce the deep wood’s woven shade,
    And dance upon the level shore?
    Young man, lift up your russet brow,
    And lift your tender eyelids, maid,
    And brood on hopes and fear no more.

    And no more turn aside and brood
    Upon love’s bitter mystery;
    For Fergus rules the brazen cars,
    And rules the shadows of the wood,
    And the white breast of the dim sea
    And all dishevelled wandering stars.

    William Butler Yeats

    Lament for a Lost Dinner Ticket by Margaret Hamilton

    See ma mammy
    See ma dinner ticket
    A pititnma
    Pokit an she pititny
    Washnmachine.

    See thon burnty
    Up wherra fire wiz
    Ma mammy says
    Am no tellnyagain
    No’y playnit.
    A jist wen’y eatma
    Pokacrisps furma dinner
    Nabigwoffldoon.

    The wummin sed Aver near
    Clapsd
    Jistur heednur
    Wee wellies sticknoot.

    They sed Wot heppind?
    Nme’nma belly
    Na bedna hospital.
    A sed A pititnma
    Pokit an she pititny
    Washnmachine.

    They sed Ees thees chaild eb slootly
    Non verbal?
    A sed MA BUMSAIR
    Nwen’y sleep.
