:: for Shannon ::
We missed our cue!
Then we missed our queue!
And where once there were many,
There then were few.

Poetry
Some Old School Verse
Edgar Allen Poe: Alone
From childhood's hour I have not been
As others were -- I have not seen
As others saw -- I could not bring
My passions from a common spring.
From the same source I have not taken
My sorrow; I could not awaken
My heart to joy at the same tone;
And all I lov'd, I loved alone.
Then -- in my childhood -- in the dawn
Of a most stormy life -- was drawn
From ev'ry depth of good and ill
The mystery which binds me still:
From the torrent, or the fountain,
From the red cliff of the mountain,
From the sun that 'round me roll'd
In its autumn tint of gold --
From the lightning in the sky
As it pass'd me flying by --
From the thunder and the storm,
And the cloud that took the form
(When the rest of Heaven was blue)
Of a demon in my view.

Did she tell you the story?
no but i have an idea that it must have something to do with either choir a concert or something music related, lol.
I'd love to hear the story though
lol you see right through me Dayn. Basically Shan and I were busy listening to the band play at the Christmas concert. We thought they had one more song, so we missed our cue to go in for the last couple of songs! There was a big gap in the back row! lol oops.
the last line should say "there then were two few." :P
lol.. I could have, but we all know you guys would have made nasty comments about spelling and then I would try to defend myself saying I was trying to be clever and well we all know how often you guys believe me :P
hey! I would have laughed. The whole thing is ridiculous anyways. "persh". so there. :P
