An October thought
The  boundaries which divide life from death
are at best shadowy and vague.
Who shall say where one ends, 
and the other begins?
Edgar Alan Poe

Yorkie Property Laws
If I like it, it is mine.
If it is in my mouth, it is mine
If I can take it from you, it is mine.
If I had it a little while ago, it is mine.
If it is mine, it must never appear to be yours in any way.
If I'm chewing something up, all of the pieces are mine.
If it just looks like mine, it is mine.
If I saw it first, it is mine.
If you are playing with something and put it down, it automatically becomes mine.
If it is broken, it is yours.

We Have A Secret
We have a secret, you and I
that no one else shall know,
for who but I can see you lie
each night in fire glow?
And who but I can reach my hand
before we go to bed
and feel the living warmth of you
and touch your silken head?
And only I walk woodland paths
and see ahead of me,
your small form racing with the wind
so young again, and free.
And only I can see you swim
in every brook I pass
and when I call, no one but I
can see the bending grass.

A Nice Poem  
Helen, thy beauty is to me
         Like those Nicean barks of yore,
       That gently, o'er a perfumed sea,
         The weary, wayworn wanderer bore
         To his own native shore.

       On desperate seas long wont to roam,
         Thy hyacinth hair, thy classic face,
       Thy Naiad airs have brought me home
         To the glory that was Greece
       And the grandeur that was Rome.

       Lo! in yon brilliant window-niche
         How statue-like I see thee stand,
         The agate lamp within thy hand!
       Ah, Psyche, from the regions which
         Are Holy Land!
Edgar Allan Poe - "To Helen"

Ponder this:
When it hurts to look back,
And you're scared to look ahead,
You can look beside you and your best friend will be there.

“The more that you read,
the more things you will know.
The more that you learn,
the more places you’ll go.”

I didn't make the Fuzzy Nation Photo finals but here is a quote to sum up my feelings:
 "This is the true joy in life - being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; being thoroughly worn out before you are thrown on the scrap heap; being a force of nature instead of a feverish selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy." ~George Bernard Shaw

“He who asks a question
is a fool for a minute;
he who does not
remains a fool forever.”

“I think a good product would be "Baby Duck Hat". It's a fake baby duck, which you strap on top of your head. Then you go swimming underwater until you find a mommy duck and her babies, and you join them. Then, all of a sudden, you stand up out of the water and roar like Godzilla. Dog, those ducks really take off! Also, Baby Duck Hat is good for parties.”

“Never discourage anyone
who continually makes progress,
no matter how slow.”
