how long will he love her??

Sir George Etherege (ca. 1635-1691)
.
To a Lady, Asking him how Long he would Love her
.
1 It is not, Celia, in our power
2 To say how long our love will last;
3 It may be we within this hour
4 May lose those joys we now do taste:
5 The blessed, that immortal be,
6 From change in love are only free.
7 Then, since we mortal lovers are,
8 Ask not how long our love will last;
9 But while it does, let us take care
10 Each minute be with pleasure past.
11 Were it not madness to deny
12 To live, because w'are sure to die?

where is my pixie dust?!

"All you need is trust... and a little bit of pixie dust!"

The Spark that Peter is..

"I suppose I always knew that I made Peterby rubbing the five of you violently together,as savages with two sticks produce a flame.I am sometimes asked who and what Peter is,but that is all he is, the spark I got from you."
