Poetry Friday: selected lines by Omar Khayyam

[slayground]

Come, fill the Cup, and in the Fire of Spring
The Winter Garment of Repentance fling:
The Bird of Time has but a little way
To fly --- and Lo! the Bird is on the Wing.

- Omar Khayyam

Love this one...and would be happier flinging the winter garment into spring right now, but alas, winter is settling in.

It is!

Perhaps we'll see more than the repentance of winter during these next months. Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays. Yes, time has but a little time to fly, and I might, especially for some in the time of Covid.

Happy holidays! Be safe!
