I am trying to remember a poem, so that I can look it up- but I can only remember one line: She walks in beauty like the night........ I don't remember anything else, or who wrote it, I just remember I liked it really well--- anyone know what poem this is? ? I'm gonna do a search on google and see if I find it.

Never mind, I found it:
Lord Byron "She walks in beauty, like the night" SHE walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies, And all that's best of dark and bright Meets in her aspect and her eyes; Thus mellow'd to that tender light Which Heaven to gaudy day denies. One shade the more, one ray the less, Had half impair'd the nameless grace Which waves in every raven tress Or softly lightens o'er her face, Where thoughts serenely sweet express How pure, how dear their dwelling-place. And on that cheek and o'er that brow So soft, so calm, yet eloquent, The smiles that win, the tints that glow, But tell of days in goodness spent,— A mind at peace with all below, A heart whose love is innocent.

Wow, what a beautiful piece of writing! I'm so glad you shared that. I'd never read that one before. Love o' Christ, HITR
