As you are
Like a thiefYou stole my heart
Like a breeze
You were here then gone
Like a siren
You captured my love
Like a dream
You were lovely and sweet
And as you are
You have these words
As you are
Like a thiefWhen power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
