143....1432..511.

The sun was shining on the sea,
Shining with all his might:
He did his very best to make
The billows smooth and bright

The sea was wet as wet could be,
The sands were dry as dry.
You could not see a cloud, because
No cloud was in the sky:
No birds were flying overhead--
There were no birds to fly.

"The time has come,"
"To talk of many things:
Of shoes--and ships--and sealing-wax--
Of cabbages--and kings--
And why the sea is boiling hot--
And whether pigs have wings."

:-bits from Lewis Carroll's "Walrus and the Carpenter"
Who every said  "Romance is dead with the young!"
Eh!
