Weekends Are For Quotes

I re-discovered this one in a book I was reading this week. I loved it as a teenager. I always wondered who Jenny was. And what age the other character was.

There is something strangely compelling about this bit o' verse.

Anyway, hopefully to make you smile:

Jenny Kissed Me

Jenny kiss'd me when we met,

Jumping from the chair she sat in;

Time, you thief, who love to get

Sweets into your list, put that in!

Say I'm weary, say I'm sad,

Say that health and wealth have miss'd me,

Say I'm growing old, but add,

Jenny kiss'd me.
