Love by JN Hahn

Love is a common word, hackneyed, used over and over for everything but what the poets intended.

Chap IV-Tiggers Don’t Climb Trees

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-7rs6b-c11dbe


I could spend a happy morning


Seeing Roo,


I could spend a happy morning


Being Pooh.


For it doesn’t seem to matter,


If I don’t get any fatter


What I do.

A. A. Milne, The House At Pooh Corner

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-6nffj-c0a050


A.A. Milne was God’s gift to children, of all ages, I love recording this book, especially reading the heartfelt dedication to his Mother in 1928, to whom he credited all that he had become.


“You gave me Christopher Robin, and then You breathed new life in Pooh. Whatever of each has left my pen Goes homing back to you. My book is ready and comes to greet The mother it longs to see~ It would be my present to you my sweet, If it weren’t your gift to me.” A.A. Milne

George Bernard Shaw Salutes His Friend Albert Einstein

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-pe7ct-bf8c83


The heavenly bodies go in curves because that is the natural way for them to go, and the whole Newtonian universe crumpled up and was succeeded by the Einstein universe.
