True Love's Kiss


Many a girl has waited long, for a husband brave or strong;
but I’m sure I never met any sort of woman yet
who could wait a hundred years,
free from fretting, free from fears.

Now, our story seems to show
that a century or so, late or early, matters not;
true love comes by fairy-lot.
Some old folk will even say it grows better by delay.

-Charles Perrault, The Sleeping Beauty in the Woods

  1. Indeed...love grows better by delay :) When love doesn't come easily, we'll value it(the person and love itself) more.

  31. Oh dear Susan, that's exactly how I felt. These days I find it harder and harder to find time visiting my favorite blogger friends, let alone blogging. I've missed you all so much. Thanks anyway for taking the time to stop by, it really means a lot. It's lovely to hear from you again after a while :)
