θεός νύ τις ἦ βροτός ἐσσι;
I like Robin Williamson's "Fool's Song (Columbine)," but I really wish he had included the verses Hope Mirrlees wrote for Lud-in-the-Mist (1926).
"There are windfalls of dreams, there's a wolf in the stars,
And Life is a nymph who will never be thine,
With lily, germander, and sops in wine.
With sweet-brier,
And bon-fire,
And strawberry-wire,
And columbine."
My poem "Leukothea's Odyssey 6" has been accepted by Goblin Fruit.

Thank you!
The link seems to be deleted--I don't know if that's the one you intended to post or...
Interesting. I wonder why. Can you see it now?
I've never read Lud-in-the-Mist; I need to remedy that, someday.
You really do.

You're welcome!

I can. Thanks!
I don't know why--it said something about "terms of service", but I can't imagine why they would do that when they've never given you (or many others of us) trouble before.
You really do.
I know. Well, sometime in the not-too-distant. I'll keep an eye out in the used book shops.
