Second Love
Would you ever find yourself a ”Second Love” ?
“So surely is she mine,” you say, and turn
Your quick and steady mind to harder things-
Dorothy Parker
Purposely Ungrammatical Love Song
Dorothy Parker’s “Purposely Ungrammatical Love Song” is an example of witty play of words.
One Perfect Rose
A single flow’r he sent me, since we met.
All tenderly his messenger he chose;
Deep-hearted, pure, with scented dew still wet –
One perfect rose.
