Spock Thoughts
1999-12-01 01:34:49
Over and over again, we here at Pigdog hear the same request from our readers: give us more Leonard Nimoy poetry! As usual, we're happy to oblige.
The following great work by Mr. Spock appears on one of those "send a card to some poor schmuck who you're going to make go to some stupid webpage and fill in a little authorization code before he can look at the pathetic little thing you made him look at" sites. But this lame greeting card site is different from all the other lame greeting card sites. It's better. It's got Spock.
I love you
not for what
I want you to be
But for what you are
I loved you then
For what you were
I love you now
for what you have become
I miss you
And not only you
I miss what I am
When you are here...
You bring out the best in me
-Leonard Nimoy
OK, eh? Go send this Spock poem to everybody you know. Excellent.
