some info:

Belle is a girl who is dissatisfied with life in a small provincial French town, constantly trying to fend off the misplaced "affections" of conceited Gaston. The Beast is a prince who was placed under a spell because he could not love. A wrong turn taken by Maurice, Belle's father, causes the two to meet

I loved the chant in the James II tribute!

Good morning from a sunny day here in our Florida radio station.

Ah, my long time friends tsar and McTag and Latin George.

Loved Harvest Moon and The Owl and the Pussy cat. I laughed because the policemen did work. Glad that you enjoyed that chant, dear friend.

Now, y'all, our poem for today by Bliss Carmen:



THERE is something in the autumn that is native to my blood—
Touch of manner, hint of mood;
And my heart is like a rhyme,
With the yellow and the purple and the crimson keeping time.

The scarlet of the maples can shake me like a cry
Of bugles going by.
And my lonely spirit thrills
To see the frosty asters like a smoke upon the hills.

There is something in October sets the gypsy blood astir;
We must rise and follow her,
When from every hill of flame
She calls and calls each vagabond by name.

Sonnet 73
~William Shakespeare

That time of year thou mayst in me behold
When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
Bare ruined choirs, where late the sweet birds sang.

In me thou see’st the twilight of such day
As after sunset fadeth in the west;
Which by and by black night doth take away,
Death’s second self, that seals up all in rest.

In me thou see’st the glowing of such fire,
That on the ashes of his youth doth lie,
As the deathbed whereon it must expire,
Consumed with that which it was nourished by.

This thou perceiv’st, which makes thy love more strong,
To love that well which thou must leave ere long.

Sparks have to be one of the most versatile bands in history.

Latin George, as you know, I like most of Shakespeare's sonnets. Hope you liked my poem.

tsar, we will await George's comment on the waltz.

England, welcome back but your link didn't work. Perhaps later, dear friend.

Today is Oscar Wilde's birthday and I remember him best for The Picture of Dorian Grey.

Briefly speaking, he sold his soul for youth, then the picture aged. He sliced it with a knife, then he became the picture:

Yes, I did like your poem, Letty.
Something in the autumn sets my blood astir too.
(Maybe it's the hot spiced cider.)

Thanks, dear friend. You might want to watch that Dorian Grey one as well.

I'll bet our friend from England knows this one, but first some info:


Sir Charles Spencer "Charlie" Chaplin, KBE was an English comic actor, filmmaker, and composer who rose to fame in the silent era
