So We'll Go No More a-Roving

While browsing idly on the web, I found this touching poem by Lord Byron. Quite aptly, a blogger has used this as his RIP post.
Paraphrasing it here for future reference

So We'll Go No More a-Roving
SO we'll go no more a-roving
So late into the night,
Though the heart still be as loving,
And the moon still be as bright.
For the sword outwears its sheath,
And the soul outwears the breast,
And the heart must pause to breathe,
And love itself have rest.
Though the night was made for loving,
And the day returns too soon,
Yet we'll go no more a-roving
By the light of the moon.

Movies 2008: Atonement



When I first watched the movie, i turned it off after 20 mins. It was not very interesting and I didn't like the strange British accent in the movie.
After few days I gave a try again and I was not disappointed. In fact the first 45 minutes forms the core of the movie and the rest of the movie was an after effect of what happens in the first few scenes.
The background score for the music is very nice.

This is a very slow moving movie ,and becomes increasingly moving as it progresses. Watch it if you like tragedy movies.
