Default Under the sea...under the sea.....

http://snipurl.com/7f0f

Overheard on a Saltmarsh

Nymph, nymph, what are your beads?
Green glass, goblin. Why do you stare at them?
Give them me.
No.
Give them me. Give them me.
No.
Then I will howl all night in the reeds,
Lie in the mud and howl for them.
Goblin, why do you love them so?
They are better than stars or water,
Better than voices of winds that sing,
They are better than stars or water,
Better than voices of winds that sing,
Better than any man's fair daughter,
Your green glass beads on a silver ring.
Hush, I stole them out of the moon.
Give me your beads, I want them.
No.
I will howl in the deep lagoon
For your green glass beads, I love them so.
Give them me. Give them.
No.
-Harold Munro

Hi, Sooz,
Glad to see you are feeling better. I think you should buy these!
After all, you posted a poem to them.
Patti
P.S. Have you worn the bracelet yet?

Those are the beads she posted on WC asking if we thought they were good
enough for eBay. I told her of course not and they needed to be sent to me.
She didn't fall for it.

Of course not, she knew that they should be sent to ME! I'm a Pisces, I
live on a boat, what more needs to be said!

Really? My sweetie has been trying to persuade me to move onto a boat...he
promised to get a bigger one with a flushing head (:

How big is your boat? Where do you put all of your beads and stuff? Do you
have a house or apt?

Sorry to be so nosy...but I just can't imagine it....

I love that poem.

Suzy Cooper - the designer - used it in her bead amulet book -"Uniquely Yours"

http://www.suzannecooper.com/beadwork/nymph.html

I started that Nymph amulet and never finished it... (yes, I am STILL the
world's slowest beader...)

I heard someone say that she had a heart attack -- does anyone know if that was
true - or how she is???

I note her website has not been updated since APRIL...
