VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

My Fairy

I have a fairy by my side
Which says I must not sleep
When once in pain I loudly cried
It said "You must not weep."

If, full of mirth I smile and grin,
It says "You must not laugh;"
When once I wished to drink some gin
It said "you must not quaff."

When once a meal I wished to taste
It said "You must not bite;"
When to the wars I went in haste
It said "you must not fight."

"What may I do?" at length I cried,
Tired of the painful task.
The fairy quietly replied,
And said "You must not ask."

Moral: "You mustn't."

My Fairy (from Useful and Instructive Poetry, 1845 ) --Lewis Carrol

(okay...I'll stop.) ;oP
