IS IT AMAVI OR IS IT AMO?, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Sit on the rocks and watch the tide
Last Line: Is it amavi or is it amo?
Alternate Author Name(s): Brown, T. E.
Subject(s): Love


SIT on the rocks and watch the tide
And which is ebb and which is flow,
And over to the other side: --
Is it amavi or is it amo?

Kneel at the altar of the years,
Take heart, and haply you shall know --
Look down into the fount of tears:
Is it amavi or is it amo?
