St. Jordi

  Words and roses for you:

"What's in a name? That which we call a rose  
By any other word would smell as sweet. "   
William Shakespeare in Romeo and Juliet (1564 – 23 April 1616)
 

"Roses are Red
 Violets are Blue 
Sugar is Sweet 
And so are You" 
English Nursery Rhyme   (traditional  short poems for children)

And the sunlight clasps the earth,

And the moonbeams kiss the sea;

-What are all these kissings worth,

If thou kiss not me?

Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792 -1822)
