Oh, I love Eliot's "the love song of j. alfred pprufrock" which is available online at
http://www.cs.amherst.edu/ccm/prufrock.htmlMost of Elliot's poetry seems rather obscure to me, but prufrock is sooo depressing but soooo good.

That's what's so wonderful about RLS' verses. They're easy to remember and one thinks of them throughout one's life as one sees things like rain and shadows. I love the sound of some poetry, too. I love the first part of the first verse of Eliot's Burnt Norton, though I just now read (online) the whole verse and it is comprehensible. smile. The second verse requires a bit more thought than I'm prepared to give it at the moment, but I don have a book of his poetry. Isn't it nice that so many of these poems are available online. I wonder how come, since I should think the copyrights are still valid.

It rains on the umbrellas here, And on the ships at sea. RLS Ann P. -- Ann K.
