dinesh, i believe sept.21 in india is sept 20 in california where it is my wife's birthday today, the 20th. i think i DID detect some comets AND sun flare ups! ! ! it looks like someone was chopping at this nice poem with an ax. did you notice? ? ? ? once again a poem has caused me to read some obscure information about words: kith and kin (kth n kn) pl.n. 1. One's acquaintances and relatives. 2. One's relatives. [Middle English kith, from Old English cth, kinsfolk, neighbors; see gn- in Indo-European roots.] Word History: Kith is obsolete except in the alliterative phrase kith and kin, which originally meant native land and people and first appeared about 1377 in Piers Plowman. Kith comes from the Old English noun cth, knowledge; known, familiar country; acquaintances, friends. Cth in turn comes from the Germanic noun *kunthith, a derivative of *kunthaz, known. Germanic *kunthaz was the past participle of a verb *kunnan, to know, know how, which became cunnan in Old English. The first person singular of this verb, can, is alive and well today, as is what was originally the verbal noun and adjective of cunnan, namely cunning, first appearing in the 14th century. Germanic *kunthaz itself survived in the Old English adjective cth, known, familiar, a word that became obsolete in southern English by 1600, but has survived in its negative, uncouth. Modern English couth is actually a jocular back-formation introduced by Max Beerbohm in 1896. I'LL FORGET MOST OF THIS IN A FEW SECONDS. I`ll begin to recollect the joys of a past gone for ever....but in your mind still, at least until dementia sets in. P.S. none wished for............and none given. but thanks for sharing. and it is NOT as a gift that i send this poem to MyPoemList. bri :)

oh a great poem for your self............your 'note' made me smile!
