: Est assez l'amour ? :

Ah me! why may not love and life be one? -Henry Timrod

Swollen Summer

Afoot and lighthearted I take to the open road, Healthy, free, the world before me, The long brown path before me, leading wherever I choose

............................................

From this hour, freedom! From this hour I ordain myself loos'd of limits and imaginary lines, Going where I list, my own master, total and absolute, Listening to others, and considering well what they say, Pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating, Gently, but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the hold that would hold me.
Walt Whitman, USA, from Song of the Open Road
