#requiredreadingredo I can‘t pick just one. It‘s taken me the entire day. It past midnight and I still can‘t decide. I think there are many required readings that every one should read. Let‘s be honest, that‘s why they are required. Because they ask the hard questions, show us either the side of life we know, or the side we don‘t. And most of all they help us learn. I chose to tag what I did because it was required poetry for me... continued...

WhiskeyMistress ...and because it was something that changed my life. That made me start writing, made me start thinking, in a whole new way. And maybe it wouldn‘t for you. Maybe it‘s only magic for me. But the beauty of reading is we all have that magic button inside, that a certain thing presses. T.S. Eliot did it for me, someone else does it for you, and the awesome thing is we can share that with each other, share the magic. Share the love. #longsappypost 6y
mabell Great thoughts! You sum it all up so well! ❤️ 6y

Purrsistently @rhea_reads11 yep!! Are you an Eliot fan? 7y
epsitawithane M not a poetry person. But yep, i like the poems of Eliot, Yeats n Frost 7y
Purrsistently I‘m kinda picky about my poets too💕 Tennyson is one of my tip top favorites 7y
epsitawithane ☺ i love his Ulysses n Lady of Shallot. N my favourite Frost poem is The road not Taken. It fits so well with my life. What's yours? @Purrsistently 7y
Purrsistently Ulysses!❤️❤️❤️❤️In Memoriam is really long but I revisit parts of it often. Frost I am less familiar with but I love Stopping By The Woods On A Snowy Evening! (edited) 7y

"Dashing the hopes of a morning with a cup of coffee." Thoreau
I don't like using pics of myself as my #profilepic , so I tend to express myself with other images. In this case, my husband had bought me a Ninja Coffee Bar, and I was having fun making different drinks and taking pics of them. This one came out particularly well, so I paired it with the cool quote and made it my #litsyavatar . I know the type's too small to read. Lol @Chelleo

Chelleo That looks delicious! 7y
SleepyDragon Thanks! 7y
