Today

Huckleberry, gooseberry, raspberry pie
All sweetest thing one cannot buy.
Peppermint candies are six for a penny,
But true love and kisses, one cannot buy any.

    Throwing down the gauntlet, I see. I'll be back.

    Eros begets children, and, if you're lucky, children beget another kind of true love.

    Nah--you were railing against sentimentality, and I was just reminding us of sentiment.

    Just manipulative sentimentality. There's a big difference.

    I'm confused. Was this a competition? It wasn't for me. Piglet "I wanted to be sure of you" . I love that. It's a simple expression of connection. I've had it and I've given it.

    No competition implied--
    just a tug at our collective hearts
