virgins

to all the virgins out there (you be virgin in any aspect you could ever imagine ;-)): found this piece of a very nice poetry from one of my favorite movies, Dead Poet's Society. I actually got a copy of the poem from a friend in friendster. This was posted in her testimonials.











Dead Poets Society: Poetry
To the Virgins, Make Much of Time - Robert Herrick

Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old time is still a-flying,
And this same flower that smiles today,
To-morrow will be dying.

The glorious lamp of heaven, the sun,
The higher he's a-getting,
The sooner will his race be run,
And nearer he's to setting.

That age is best which is the first,
When youth and blood are warmer;
But being spent, the worse and worst
Times still succeed the former.

Then be not coy, but use your time,
and while ye may, go marry;
For having lost just once your prime,
You may for ever tarry.

Don't just sit there!
Try everything...And when I say everything, I mean everything.
