Place a beehive on my grave And let the honey soak through. When I'm dead and gone, That's what I want from you. The streets of heaven are gold and sunny, But I'll stick with my plot and a pot of honey. Place a beehive on my grave And let the honey soak through. ↗

George had turned at the sound of her arrival. For a moment he contemplated her, as one who had fallen out of heaven. He saw radiant joy in her face, he saw the flowers beat against her dress in blue waves. The bushes above them closed. He stepped quickly forward and kissed her.

Вечер угасне електричеството.Обгърне ме благодетелна тъмнина.Все едно че съм сама.Никой не ме вижда.Дори мога да плача.Какво блаженство!Да плачеш,без да те питат защо плачеш,без да те утешават.Но за такова щастие се изисква тренировка:да плачеш,без да издадеш никакъв звук,и да си готов да отговориш на внезапен въпрос с най-невинен глас:”Четката е на етажерката! ↗
