    I am a Communist, a convinced Communist! For some that may be a fantasy. But to me it is my main goal.

    When we awoke, we found a heavy dew on our blankets. I lay awake very early, and listened to the clear, shrill ah, te te, te te, te of the white-throated sparrow, repeated at short intervals, without the least variation, for half an hour, as if it could not enough express its happiness. Whether my companions heard it or not, I know not, but it was a kind of matins to me, and the event of the forenoon.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    it was my birthday, and a candle
    burnt a sore spot on my finger, and I was told to be happy,
