Monday, June 25, 2012 at 17:19 A work by this Spanish poet. You can read the original here.
 And so shall we approach the end,
And so shall we approach the end,   
 And softly clasp the joy achieved;  
 Far from vain cares, on lonely bend, 
Thoughts troubling faith and life's release. 
 
Wet, yellow branches of willows torn
 Will graze our brows; while sandy pearls
 And vervain's brimming cups adorn 
 Our peaceful, lazy footprints' swirls.  
 
 Your tender waist my arm shall round,  
 Your head my shoulder shall embrace;
Your beauty, e'er by time unbound,  
An ideal evening's love shall grace.
