Carpe Diem...

                             John William Waterhouse/ 1909/  Gather Ye Rosebuds...


VARIOUS POETS breaking reality to us...but thank life anyway, for being...


Odes of Horace:

   Carpe diem quam minimum credula postero.../ Seize the day and put no trust in the future.


THOMAS JORDAN/ 1637/ Let Us Drink and be Merry...

   Let's eat, drink and play
   till the worms do corrupt us....


ROBERT HERRICK/  To The Virgins, To Make Much of Time...

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


WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE/  Twelfth Night...

   Present mirth hath present laughter;
   what's to come is still unsure...



           Kick up your heels and dance anyway...getting my tutu back!!
