'Behold ! said he, as from his vest he drew it,
'This little treasure in a golden cruet :
A life, a long one, for my locks are grey,
In ceaseless toil has slowly passed away,
To gain that treasure, now my search must stop,
And see, I have but saved this little drop !

Love and science
If love is just
a chemical reaction
then how do a scientist explain

Concern Is Love
My chemistry and my son’s will clash.
My chemistry and my daughter’s won’t.
Yet I have greater concern for the son.
Concern and not amity speaks of love.
