And, the Four Quartets...not as well known as Prufrock or The Wasteland, but worth a quick peruse, imo...

mD - I have never heard of this poem. That's pretty good...Thank you!

H - you got any more?

There is a love letter that was written from Napoleon to his wife Josephine? that was great. The letter started that he didn't like her too much because she did not write to him and at the end he could not wait to kiss and hold her. Does anyone remember that letter? I know he wrote a lot to her but, that letter sticks to my mind. One of the best love letter I have read.
