The Look by Sara Teasdale

Strephon kissed me in the spring,
Robin in the fall,
But Colin only looked at me
And never kissed at all.

Strephon's kiss was lost in jest,
Robin's lost in play,
But the kiss in Colin's eyes
Hauunts me night and day.

She notes:

I believe that seaports and airports are portals to new discoveries, that books are not as boring as how other people make them sound, that I can go on with my silly pretenses of ignoring God but He will love me still and it will always be Him that I will run to in the end, that I can still be Salome and demand for anyone's head when I dance, that it is better to plant your own flowers than wait for someone to give you one, that it is healthy to contradict yourself once in a while as this makes you normal, that it is alright to admit you are wrong (most especially when you really are), that family (no matter how angry we are with them) should be cherished, that weddings and funerals have something in common --- we all cry on such events, that we should welcome love knowing that it is both a blessing and a curse, that beauty magazines really (do) promote low self-esteem, that you can have everything (just never at the same time), that practicality can be quite handy in most cases, that friends are the best gifts that one can receive, that you need to build your own dreams and not borrow someone else's."
