THIS box, mine own sweet darling, thou wilt find
With many a varied sweetmeat's form supplied; The fruits are they of holy Christmas tide, But baked indeed, for children's use design'd. I'd fain, in speeches sweet with skill combin'd, Poetic sweetmeats for the feast provide; But why in such frivolities confide? Perish the thought, with flattery to blind! One sweet thing there is still, that from within, Within us speaks,--that may be felt afar; This may be wafted o'er to thee alone. If thou a recollection fond canst win, As if with pleasure gleam'd each well-known star, The smallest gift thou never wilt disown. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 1807

AuthorHello. Let me introduce myself: my name is Julia, I have European background, I am mother of three and forty eight years old. I have been eating organic food all my life and I have started my first vegetable garden when I was six years old. I use only Julia's Organic skincare range to nourish my skin along with organic homemade soap. Categories |
