The felicity of words with which you invest your poetry is remarkbly amazing. I only feel how lagging behind is my own loss. One day i must spend just reading and reading, doing nothing else.

I love watching sail boats and ships from the shore/dock, but I want my feet to be on something solid.  I'm satisfied to be a landlubber what time I have left.
