"By the margin, willow veil'd,
Slide the heavy barges trail'd
By slow horses; and unhail'd
The shallop flitteth silken-sail'd
Skimming down to Camelot:
But who hath seen her wave her hand?
Or at the casement seen her stand?
Or is she known in all the land,
The Lady of Shalott?
Only reapers, reaping early,
In among the bearded barley
Hear a song that echoes cheerly
From the river winding clearly;
Down to tower'd Camelot;
And by the moon the reaper weary,
Piling sheaves in uplands airy,
Listening, whispers, 'Tis the fairy
Lady of Shalott.'"
I'd like to wish my loverly sister, Olivia Taylor Powers, a Happy 16th Birthday!
Happy Birthday Sis, may the Lord bless you in the coming years and may you live to see Freedom, Order and Peace restored to our country.

Happy Birthday, Livvy!
Mike: I take it your oldest sister is as big "Ann of Green Gables" fan as mine is?
Happy Birthday, indeed!
Thanks ya'll!
Stephen:
She certainly is!
In fact, she just told me to correct you for not spelling "Anne" properly. :P

Oh man, Stephen, that's a cardinal sin in Gabledom!
My sister's a huge fan as well.
Me mother, too.
I'm speechless!!!
How could I ever forget that!?
"A pox upon me for a clumsy lout."
