an meine liebste Cousine <3 R.I.P. ich liebe dich* 15.01.1993 + 28.02.2009...How do I love thee ? Let me count the ways. I love thee to tthe depth and breadth and height My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight For the ends of Being and ideal Grace. I love thee to the level of everyday's Most quiet need, by the sun and candle-light. I love thee freely, as men strive for Right; I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise. I love thee with the passion put to use In my old griefs, and with my childhood''s faith. I love thee with a love I seemed to lose with my lost saints, - I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all my life ! - and, if God choose, I shall but love thee better after death.
