I really haven't an idea as to why,
but Frost's
Mending Wall always stuck since school.
I'm by no means anywhere close to literate;
when it comes to poetry, I'm quite a big dunce.
Do you have to be "literate" to enjoy a good book or poem? Anyway another poem...
----------------------------------------------------------
You smile upon your friend to-day,
Today his ills are over,
You hearken to the lover's say,
And happy is the lover.
'Tis late to hearken, late to smile,
But better late than never:
I shall have lived a little while
Before I die for ever.
- A.E. Housman
