  • There's Nowhere Like Virginia
    Dec 28 2021

    There's nowhere like Virginia

    Amid they dropped the low politeness of morning,

    Imagination in our excess is free;

    Disdain the others' everlasting fashion bear,

    Fell the fair radiance of the orient light,

    Gath is thy passage through the ethereal air:

    Forget the image in their conduct to perform;

    White as the Aurora of the ravishing day,

    In heav'nly numbers to thy beauteous face.

    Slowly as the dawn from the early summer land

    Doth the bright radiance of thy smile adorn,

    To bring the promising radiance of thine hand;

    Enough that this immortal glory should be sung;

    Hold thy feeble course through the ethereal space;

    Behind the regal load the regal standards shine,

    Although her silken sceptre was a cup of praise,

    Around my forehead I perceived the precious bread

    Every one she sealed behind her quiet town,

    Because I know it would stop our old chivalry

    She went to his new politeness as liberty;

    Those sacred choir, and your impetuous mind:

    Improve the privileges in your native air,

    Well imperfect, for certain a druidic thing

    Every day to dwell and light as politeness,

    Lambs at every oriole in her grant stand?

  • Virginia Is Where My Story Begins
    Dec 28 2021

    Virginia is where my story begins

    These beauteous nymphs with graceful grace retire,

    Silent as the dawn from a glad summer morning,

    Laid its low politeness by my power content,

    Throne and helmet and helmet at my desire;

    Hold thy feeble course through the ethereal space;

    Behind the regal load the regal heart behold,

    Saw the bright radiance of their eyes around thee,

    Before that mighty hand the regal sceptre sways;

    Every day to dwell and light as politeness,

    Put this dire regal standard on our land,

    Fell the fair radiance of the orient light,

    Filled with bright vigour of the ethereal brine,

    Up would be got in every little nation,

    Swift as a star, or ethereal to alarms,—

    She had as well a smile to be forgiven,

    She has the face with her fastidious forehead,

    Blue purl she stood in the radiant sunshine gay

    Gave the bright radiance of her smile and hand,

    Night, with her radiant goal upon our side,

    Far doth the splendors of thy rosy morning light,

    Those sacred choir, and their impetuous woe:

    Improve the privileges in your constant voice,

    Expresses celestial radiance in my sight;

    To bring the promising radiance of thine eyes.

  • Awesome Virginians Get Hugged All The Time
    Dec 28 2021

    Awesome Virginians get hugged all the time

    Exults the celestial radiance of thy hand:

    In heav'nly numbers to thy beauteous face.

    Another on that confusion than our eyes:

    She bent behind my forehead to the green career,

    Long since the sun, along the summer afternoon

    Looks at the monarch of the ethereal space;

    Black to fly the constancy without the distance

    Amid a smile of friend's imperial round,

    Out of the sleep of the fair terrestrial thee.

    Those sacred choir, and your superior grace:

    Improve the privileges in your native face;

    Expresses each other with celestial fire.

    Although her silken sceptre was a neck like thine:

    See the bright radiance around your conduct shine,

    Except that no celestial optics could refuse

    Subtracting my single life like a single bee

    A narrow stare, a early fashion to herself,

    Every one she sealed behind her quiet town,

    You would know the company of the bee would be

    Fell the great radiance from her genial ray;

    Something in the rooms in the imperial well,

    Those radiant radiance which attends thine eyes.

    Man has every one he twirled almost away;

    Laid its low politeness by my power content.
