Simile (Poetry)

SIMILE

A Red, Red Rose
by
Robert Burns

O my Luve's like a red, red rose
That's newly sprung in June;
O my Luve's like the melodie
That's sweetly played in tune.

As fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
So deep in luve am I;
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
Till a' the seas gang dry:

Till a' the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt wi' the sun;
I will luve thee still, my dear,
While the sands o' life shall run.

And fare thee weel, my only Luve,
And fare thee weel awhile!
And I will come again, my Luve,
Tho' it ware ten thousand mile. 

Bridge Over Troubled Water

By : Simon & Garfunkel

When you're weary, feeling small,
when tears are in your eyes, i will dry them all;
I'm on your side. when times get rough
and friends just can't be found,
like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down.
like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down.

When you're down and out,
when you're on the street, when evening falls so hard, I will comfort you.
I will take your part oh,
When darknes comes
and pain is all around,
like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down.
like a bridge over trouble water I will lay me down.

Sail on silvergirl,
sail on by.
your time has come to shine.
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine.
Oh, if you need a friend I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind

Selena Gomez Lyrics » A Year Without Rain Lyrics

Oooooh
Can you feel me when I think about you?
With every breath I take
Every minute, no matter what I do
My world is an empty place

Like I've been wondering the desert
For a thousand days
Don't know if it's a mirage
But I always see your face, baby

I'm missing you so much
Can't help it, I'm in love
A day without you is like a year without rain
I need you by my side
Don't know how I'll survive
A day without you is like a year without rain
Ooh, woooaaahh woaahh

The stars are burning
I hear your voice in my mind
Can't you hear me calling
My heart is yearning
Like the ocean that's running dry
Catch me I'm falling

It's like the ground is crumbling underneath my feet
(Won't you save me)
There's gonna be a monsoon
When you get back to me

Oh, baby
[. From: http://www.elyrics.net .]

I'm missing you so much
Can't help it, I'm in love
A day without you is like a year without rain
I need you by my side
Don't know how I'll survive
A day without you is like a year without rain
Ooh, woooaaahh woaahh

So let this drought come to an end
And make this desert flower again
I'm so glad you found me
Stick around me
Baby, baby, baby, oh
It's a world of wonder with you in my life
So hurry, baby
Don't waste no more time
And I need you here
I can't explain
But day without you
is like a year without rain
Ooh

I'm missing you so much
Can't help it, I'm in love
A day without you is like a year without rain
I need you by my side
Don't know how I'll survive
A day without you is like a year without rain
Ooh, woooaaahh woaahh

Flint

An emerald is as green as grass,
A ruby red as blood;
A sapphire shines as blue as heaven;
A flint lies in the mud.

A diamond is a brilliant stone,
To catch the world's desire;
An opal holds a fiery spark;
But a flint holds a fire.

Christina Rossetti
1830-1894
