    Poetry I did not get much sleep last night, I tossed and turned, I woke up in a cold sweat wondering, Wondering if I’m good enough for you, When I get up in the morning, You’re the first thing I think about, And when I go to bed at night, You’re the last thing I think about, I am deeply, madly, passionately, ...

    The Thought VoxAuthority Authority: 112
    I’ve been an avid reader since I was a child. I have no idea how many books I’ve read. Sometimes certain books stay with us for a long time after we’ve read them. This list is in no way a ranking of the *Value* of these books. It is simply a list of ten books [...]

    Compare and Contrast Sylvia Plath’s Morning Song with your own experiences of child rearing in the morning: Love set you going like a fat gold watch.
