Carry me back to old Virginny,
There's where the cotton and the corn and taters grow;
There's where the birds warble sweet in the springtime,
There's where this old darky's heart am longed to go.

Golden slippers I'm gwinter to wear,
To walk the golden streets.

Quote of the day
From too much love of living, From hope and fear set free, We thank with brief thanksgiving Whatever gods may be That no life lives for ever, That dead men rise up never; That even the weariest river Winds somewhere safe to sea.
Algernon Charles Swinburne
