The Lover Pleads With His Friend For Old Friends



THOUGH you are in your shining days,
Voices among the crowd
And new friends busy with your praise,
Be not unkind or proud,
But think about old friends the most:
Time's bitter flood will rise,
Your beauty perish and be lost
For all eyes but these eyes.

William Butler Yeats

You Are a Jam Filled Cookie
You are an idea person. You're always thinking up something new.
You're also quite persuasive. People are drawn to you and adopt your beliefs.

You are energetic and ambitious. But most of all, you are charming.
You are a natural leader, and you are ready to lead!
What Holiday Cookie Are You?
