Quotes about lasted, page 8
Well, we know that eighteen years after that solemn declaration it was disregarded, and the Irish Parliament, which lasted for five hundred years, was destroyed by the Act of Union. Gentlemen, the Act of Union was carried by force and fraud, by treachery and falsehood.

In those days, reserve duty lasted for six years, which, I might add, was three times as long as service in the regular army, although to be perfectly honest, I was unable to fulfill my entire obligation because I was taking acting classes and they said I could skip my last year.

It really lasted the whole game, because I was really untouchable, unstoppable that game. But it was heightened on one particular play, and that was the longest run where everything completely slowed down. My awareness was so keen, it was so heightened, it was really amazing.

Sakura Kiss
You caressed me,
you took my hand,
brought it close,
held me in your arms.
We embraced,
moments which
lasted a lifetime.
You hugged me tight,
whispered in my ear,
made me smile,
and weep all the same.
Then you faded,
leaving a bigger emptiness
than when we first met.

Maybe I Wasn't Looking
i was with my daughter
at a graduation party
sitting at table six
i'm fascinated how
conversations transpired
talking about fashion
how to have round rear
was topic that lasted
up to dinner being serve
i look around if it's true
sure fabric's contour show
bottom's fleshomatic grow

A Vampires Kiss
A Vampires Kiss, so sweet and wordless,
A Vampires Kiss, should last forever,
A Vampires Kiss, together with your own,
A Vampires Kiss, so lovely and delicate,
A Vampires Kiss, that has last for centuries,
A Vampires Kiss, so cold but warm,
A Vampires Kiss, has lasted forever in my heart.

Tireless pursuit is sex
I started my life with adolescent mischief.
It has lasted with ages over five decades.
The net expanded for women
From puberty to menopause and even beyond,
With my age on rise.
It retains taste for the young while gaining for the elder.
One, rising up a hill, will have a wider view.

In the past week it has become clear that the vote on the final healthcare bill will be very close. I take this vote with the utmost seriousness. I am quite aware of the historic fight that has lasted the better part of the last century to bring America in line with other modern democracies in providing single payer health care.

Listen to the Rain
Listen to the rain as it occurs to our eyes,
My sight had no question to ask
As to why the spitting lasted too long
And turned into showers so delightful.
How do we dangle our legs over a muddy bridge
When rainy days do disallow such practices?
How on Earth can you dissolve the acid into rain
When rain is a minor miracle, a liquid for pleasure?

Passing the baton.
It had to end.
We had all this.
So absorbed in all our comforts.
Photos, framed memories,
Holidays, various locations.
It lasted longer than
Either of us,
Secretly dared to hope.
Now we are just someone
Else`s memories.
Isn`t that the way,
Time immemorial.
We all think we
Are more important
Because we outlived 'you'.
How sad!
Feel the quality,
Not the width.
