Does anyone know who composed this lovely little
poem ?

We are the wild swans, hear us far flying,
Over dark water and under dark sky,
Brother to brother, replying, replying.

We are the Kings, and as trumpets our cry,
We are no mendicant mutes of the lakeside,
We are the wild ones who sound as we fly.


Regards,   Ann.

My idea of housework is to sweep the room with a glance.
Do not meddle in the affairs of  dragons for you are crunchy, and taste 
good with ketchup.

As far as I can remember the little bit of Hungarian I ever learnt and 
its pronounciation rules it should be:

ketch-kern
"Ketch" as in the boat of that type and "kern" as in the beginning of 
"kernel".


Yours, just back from gallivanting in California. Came home last night 
like an aged Cinderella: at midnight and with one shoe off. My hand 
luggage -- twice as heavy on the return trip as it had beeen on the way 
out -- slid off my shoulder while I was walking down the staircase to 
collect my checked-in luggage, pulled me after it and I got a twisted 
ankle which looks like a semi-inflated ballon. So I've been catching up 
with the e-mail with that foot resting on the bolster pillow a friend 
gave me. It's not quite large enough (in diameter) either as a lace 
pillow or as a foot rest, but, waste not... :)
