For kissing, not for such contempt.

One kind kiss before we part,
Drop a tear and bid adieu;
Though we sever, my fond heart
Till we meet shall pant for you.

Awwwww, what a lovely bunch of photos. What a great gift the Lord gave us, when He commanded us to "Love one another".

Karen: How could you produce such a great segment from Scotland w/o remembering...

"Ae Fond Kiss" by Robert Burns

Ae fond kiss, and then we sever;
Ae fareweel, and then for ever!
Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee,
Warring signs and groans I'll wage thee.

One of my favorite Burn's pieces! The modern tune(Rory Dall's Port) is great too!

Yes, it's tragic ...
But it's also transcendental!
