blur

No matter how crazy things in my life are getting (ie: right now) I will always make time to keep reading, because I love finding cool things in obscure books. Here's my latest discovery

"My God how endless is thy love!
Thy gifts are every evening new;
And morning mercies from above
Gently distill like early dew.

Thou spread'st the curtains of the night
Great Guardian of my sleeping hours;
Thy sovreign word restores the light
and quickens all my drowsy pow'rs

I yield my pow'rs to thy command.
To thee I consecrate my days;
Perpetual blessings deom thy hand
Demand perpetual songs of praise."

-Isaac Watts, 1708

I also found another sonnet I LOVE
maybe I'll post it when things cool down
which might be never, but we'll see
