Ah, what can ail thee, wretched wight, Alone and palely loitering; The sedge is withered from the lake, And no birds sing. Ah, what can ail thee, wretched wight, So haggard and so woe-begone? The squirrel’s granary is full, And the harvest’s done. I see a lilly on thy brow, With anguish moist and fever […]
Those lips that Love’s own hand did make Breathed forth the sound that said ‘I hate,’ To me that languish’d for her sake: But when she saw my woeful state, Straight in her heart did mercy come, Chiding that tongue that ever sweet Was used in giving gentle doom, And taught it thus anew to […]
O! how thy worth with manners may I sing, When thou art all the better part of me? What can mine own praise to mine own self bring? And what is’t but mine own when I praise thee? Even for this, let us divided live, And our dear love lose name of single one, That […]
If he could learn to love another, and earn her love in return by the time the last petal fell, then the spell would be broken. If not, he would be doomed to remain a beast for all time. As the years passed, he fell into despair and lost all hope. For who could ever […]
My lovelies, because I didn’t have the time to write a new book review – and because I can’t decide what book to present next – I thought that this would be a good time to use this tag I found on Funions. No, they are not the ones who actually created it, but it’s […]
It was a myth well known to anyone in Tireol that the enchanted forests hid the gates of heaven created by gods.

The song I chose for today is not exactly a new one. Yuki no Hana was released in 2003 and it belongs to Mika Nakashima, although there have been quite a few other musicians who covered it in different languages. For example, I remember first listening to Hayley Westenra singing Snow Flower and only afterwards […]
Book 1: The Deep Beneath “I was provided with a complimentary copy of this book so I could give an honest review.” The Deep Beneath is the first instalment in Natalie Wright’s young adult science fiction series entitled H.A.L.F., which was inspired by the Roswell UFO Incident, but the author took it to a whole […]
I saw this tag on quite a few blogs before actually finding the original video (A Daydreamer’s Ramblings) and I was drawn to it because of the name. I was going to abandon it at first because I couldn’t think of titles which could fit certain points (and because so many people focus only on […]
For today’s post I wrote an article about a song I wanted to analyse for a long time and now I’m sharing my thoughts about it with you. The song is entitled The Mystic’s Dream by Canadian singer, harpist and composer Loreena McKennitt and it appeared on her 1994 album The Mask and Mirror. What […]
