“Count the ways”
Would you like me to count
The ways,
You take my breath
Away,
One is because you said
You loved me one day,
Two is because of your beautiful
Ways,
Three is because the first time
We held hands on that Halloween day,
Four is because your beauty blows
The world away,
Five through 999,999,999,999 is because
You take my breath away,
Do you need anymore reasons
Today.
The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.
Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
