Here is a poem I received earlier this week via Poem Flow, a new free, mobile application. Enjoy!
Envoy
Robert Louis Stevenson
Go, little book, and wish to all
Flowers in the garden, meat in the hall,
A bin of wine, a spice of wit,
A house with lawns enclosing it,
A living river by the door,
A nightingale in the sycamore!
This week's Poetry Friday Roundup is over at Teaching Books.

Love this! Especially those last two lines. I want a living river by my door (preferably not due to floods, though, which are threatening some Minnesota towns). Thanks for sharing a bit of Stevenson!
