Over The Land Is April
 







 
OVER the land is April,
Over my heart a rose;
Over the high, brown mountain
The sound of singing goes.
Say, love, do you hear me,
Hear my sonnets ring?
Over the high, brown mountain,
Love, do you hear me sing?

By highway, love, and byway
The snows succeed the rose.
Over the high, brown mountain
The wind of winter blows.
Say, love, do you hear me,
Hear my sonnets ring?
Over the high, brown mountain
I sound the song of spring,
I throw the flowers of spring.
Do you hear the song of spring?
Hear you the songs of spring?

Robert Louis Stevenson

dyk, I would read the High school and middle school books at the same time

dyk, I have multiples of many because they were sold as lots on ebay and I needed other books in the lot

dyk, I even have both covers of the books that had both covers

dyk, I still collected well after I stopped reading them

DYK Yeah, that is the kind of thing we've been dealing with all year long with Maegan's teachers?

DYK No wonder the kids aren't learning anything?

DYK I'm wondering if the book is required reading...and if so, then the teacher should try her best to make it interesting...not be telling the kids how bad it is before they even start it?

DYK Right now, I'm holding my breath til Maegan's report card gets here?

DYK It was supposed to be mailed on April 1st, but according to Maegan, the teachers didn't have them ready on time?

DYK Why am I not surprised at this?

DYK I think Maegan has read about a dozen of the Trixie Belden books that I had before she kind of outgrew them?

DYK I had forgotten about Beverly Clearly..I liked her books too?

dyk, yay for flipping off McDonald's!

dyk, and it really sucks that you've been suffering through so much lately. I hope you get some sort of relief soon.

dyk, those look good

dyk, I might have to start looking for them

dyk, I'm not ashamed to admit that I'd rather read a light-hearted YA book than a heavier adult book. I've recently started trying to get all of the 'yellow' Nancy Drew books.

dyk, one I ordered from amazon came and I was surprised that it wasn't 'yellow' like advertised, instead it was one of the older blue with the silhouette instead of a colored picture on the cover.
