Hi, I'm Tom. I started as a typographical error Started conversation Nov 21, 2005
She walks in beauty like the day,
Her hair adorned with white asphodel,
Bringing warmest winds of May.
Bluebirds circle fair katkodl
On the mossy bank she kneels,
Peering at the wat'ry rings
As they frame her face with wheels.
From a branch a blackbird sings.
At dusk the sparkling stars do wink.
The shelt'ring oak must guard her so d'lightful.
Round her fireflies blink.
Fair by day and night: katkodl

Hello Tom!
Sorry for not replying earlier! I was busy with my thesis and buying some more Christmas decorations!
Thanks for this wonderful poem! So many flying creatures and plants around me!
And all those pretty rhyming words!
The poem creates such a nice atmosphere - I can almost smell the asphodel! (Not that I know what asphodel smells like...)
Just love it! It's so pretty!

Such a nice poem!
Asphodel is sometimes chopped up and mixed into bread dough, and the baked. I don't know what it tastes like. It comes from a word meaning "sceptre." Tom paid you quite a compliment!

Yes, Tom is a very nice typo!
I just looked up asphodel, and it turns out that it doesn't grow in Austria... Now I have to import asphodel in order to make bread!

Right, I think I can easily do without worms in my hair! Or in bread.
But it's amazing how many words you found that rhyme with my name. I think there isn't a single German word that does. Now that I think about it - the German word for sled (Rodel) rhymes with my name! Now I can write a winter poem with my name!
