The Gypsy Violin
The Gypsy Violin
by Munda
The compelling violin lures
With an irresistible yearn
Dance, dance, please dance for me
I can no longer adjourn!
Ethereal notes float from its strings
Caressing like a lover’s hand
Sensual music, Angel’s touch
Leading the way to wonderland
Embracing with utter delight
Craving, beckoning me
Tempting my lonely heart
Dance, dance on my melody!
Faster, faster the music escapes
Without compassion to body or soul
Seducer of lonely hearts
Until dancing is my only goal
Faces gyrate while I dance on passion
Flashes of fire in the corner of my eyes
When You Are Old
When You Are Old
by William Butler Yeats
When you are old and gray and full of sleep
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true;
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face.
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead,
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
FSF has lost touch with reality
So, according to a story on Reuters, the Free Software Foundation (FSF) is evaluating whether or not to ban Novell from didtributing future versions of their Linux OS.
“The community of people wants to do anything they can to interfere with this deal and all deals like it. They have every reason to be deeply concerned that this is the beginning of a significant patent aggression by Microsoft,” Eben Moglen, the Foundation’s general counsel, said on Friday.
