One poem: Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening by Robert Frost
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound’s the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
One item of clothing: This bikini from Victoria’s Secret
One song: Mika, “Relax, Take It Easy”
One place: The Elberon Bathing Club on the Jersey shore
One Disney princess: Cinderella
One quote: Everything will be okay in the end. If it’s not okay, it’s not the end.
