Homework.

For my AP English summer assignment, I had to read three books. One of them being, Greek Mythology.
One story I came across, "Pyramus and Thisbe" moved me in the first paragraph.
It's beautiful how words can create such a vivid image in your mind, and how words can make you feel so many emotions.
I just really want to share some of this story, and can only hope you understand where I'm coming from when I say ta=hat these words are so moving, so full of passion and care.

"Once upon a time the deep red berries of the mulberry tree were white as snow. The change in color came about strangely and sadly. The death of two young lovers was the cause. Pyramus and Thisbe, he the most beautiful youth and she the loveliest maiden of all the East, lived in Babylon, the city of Queen Semiramis, in houses so close together that one wall was common to both. Growing up thus side by side they learned to love each other. They longed to marry, but their parents forbade. Love, however, cannot be forbidden. The more that flame is covered up, the hotter it burns. Also love can always find a way. It was impossible that these two whose hearts were on fire should be kept apart".
