D A L A N E Y

 

 

 

 

Shall I part my hair? Do I dare to eat a peach?
I shall wear white flannel trousers, and walk along the beach.
I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each.
I do not think they sing to me.
I have seen them riding seaweed on the waves
Combing the white hair of the waves blown back
When the wind blows the water white and black.
We have lingered in chambers of the sea
By sea-girls wreathed with sea-weed of red and brown
Till human voices wake us, and we drown.
                                                              --T.S.Eliot

Just a note:

 

I know this background will probably be yanked because of its image

content - breasts.  I do not mean to offend anyone with what I post

on my homepage.  Rather, I look at my homepage as a reflection of

who I am and emotions I am experiencing.  I personally feel there is

nothing wrong with displaying artwork/photography of the human body

(in this case, a mermaid) when it is done tastefully.
