Happy Birthday to Wislawa Szymborska (and me)!

[aquamarcia]

I discovered earlier today, in a fit of poetry-related serendipity, that I share a birthday with Wislawa Szymborska. Also, she wrote a poem called Golden Anniversary. And furthermore, I turned 50, the golden anniversary of the day of my birth. So let's celebrate with that poem!

Golden AnniversaryThey must have been different once
