Happy December’s End to you, too! Applause for “Please don’t fall in love with me” - a song to pair with “My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun”! At last, a woman’s worthy retort to Shakespeare’s one-sided sonnet. Peace and merriment to your family!

And to you, Tara! I hadn’t thought of that! Maybe I’ll play that song for the students next time I teach that poem.

I am revising my next Intro to Lit syllabus already… :-) Thanks for the musical pairing.
