You come too

The Pasture

I'm going out to clean the pasture spring;
I'll only stop to rake the leaves away
(And wait to watch the water clear, I may):
I sha'n't be gone long. - You come too.

I'm going out to fetch the little calf
That's standing by the mother. It's so young,
It totters when she licks it with her tongue.
I sha'n't be gone long. - You come too.

by Robert Frost

Nate Notes:
This is one of my all time favorites. One of the most sublime and profound ways to express love and maintain intimacy is simply to share time. Do the little things together. When was the last time you laughed together over dishes, or got the mail together hand in hand? We should love being with the ones we love...

You come too!
