It must be love
When you feel
Affection at the sight
Of her underpants
In a small heap
On the floor

Goethe's Nightsong
--Wandrers Nachtlied (1780)
Over the hills
Comes the quiet.
Across the treetops
No breeze blows.
Not a sound: even the small
Birds in the woods
are quiet
Just wait: soon you
Will be quiet, too.
from New and Selected Poems by David Lehman

THE RULE OF THUMB
by T.P.Winch
Ringfinger was nervous
Pinky terrified
when they learned
that Hand might succumb
to the rule of Thumb.
