"If tomorrow morning the sky falls...
have clouds for breakfast.
If night falls...
use stars for streetlights.
If the moon gets stuck in a tree...
cover the hole in the sky with a strawberry.
If you have butterflies in your stomach...
ask them into your heart.
If your heart catches in your throat...
ask a bird how she sings.
If the birds forget their songs...
listen to a pebble instead.
If you lose a memory...
embroider a new one to take it's place.
If you lose the key...
throw away the house.
If the clock stops...
use your own hands to tell time.
If the light goes out...
wear it around your neck and go dancing.
If the bus doesn't come...
catch a fast cloud.
If it's the last dance...
dance backwards.
If you find your socks don't match...
stand in a flower bed.
If your shoes don't fit...
give them to the fish in the pond.
If your horse needs shoes...
let him use his wings.
If the sun never shines again...
hold fireflies in your hands to keep them warm.
If you're afraid of the dark...
remember the night rainbow.
If there's no happy ending...
make one out of cookie dough."

 

Ok, you got me - who was that?

------
Let me not to the marriage of true minds

Admit impediments. Love is not love

Which alters when it alteration finds,

Or bends with the remover to remove:

O no! it is an ever-fixed mark

That looks on tempests and is never shaken;

It is the star to every wandering bark,

Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.

Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks

Within his bending sickle's compass come:

Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,

But bears it out even to the edge of doom.

If this be error and upon me proved,

I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

 

But if you bend it just right...............it fits just fine

 

Classic OT. Wait...maybe that's NT (No Topic)...

 

I'd have to nominate this for one of the least cohesive threads ever, but I just ruined that by actually responding to a post in it. Perhaps I can take us back out of linearity:

"We cannot be kind to each other here for even an hour. We whisper, and hint, and chuckle and grin at our brother's shame; however you take it we men are a little breed. "

 

Captain Kirk?

If I swallow anything evil, put your finger down my throat...
If I quiver please give me a blanket, keep me warm let me wear your coat...

Just wanted to add to the wierdness of this thread by posting a useless quote. Maybe not as poignant as Kahlil, but satisfying to say the least. Anyone know where this is from?
