I know the quote well and have always thought it to be immensely profound (and true).  … a striking poem today to leave with us for the weekend.  Have a good one!

This poem continues....

...to my way of thinking, in the same vein as the previous one - though it is more subdued.

To me the beauty and artistry of your poem(s) is/was/ever will be, your stamp on eternity..Bravo, my dear
