I had a new one. Not using currently because my shampoos are fragrant enough. Best-smelling ones.

Good nature and good buildings. If there is more money and more freedom, then everything would be even better.

The Fable

by Yvor Winters

Beyond the steady rock the steady sea,
In movement more immovable than station,
Gathers and washes and is gone. It comes,
A slow obscure metonymy of motion,
Crumbling the inner barriers of the brain.
But the crossed rock braces the hills and makes
A steady quiet of the steady music,
Massive with peace.
And listen, now:
The foam receding down the sand silvers
Between the grains, thin, pure as virgin words,
Lending a sheen to Nothing, whispering.

It's "shore" ("I'll even shore my cat with you.") but I suppose "share" makes more sense. Because what's "shore" as a verb?

support by placing against something solid or rigid
shore and buttress an old building
Synonym:
prop up prop shore up
2
arrive on shore
The ship landed in Pearl Harbor
Synonym:
land set ashore
3
serve as a shore to
The river was shored by trees
