Happy Valentine's Day!
. . .
In the evening, when we're sitting
By the fire perchance alone,
Then shall heart with warm heart meeting,
Give responsive tone for tone.
We can burst the bonds which chain us,
Which cold human hands have wrought,
And where none shall dare restrain us
We can meet again, in thought.
. . .
From " Parting" by Charlotte Brontė (1816-1855)
