Hey! I'm just logging on to put up the dayly quote and poem... Not much new to me, but I'm still injured.


"Life is no life to him that dares not die. And death no death to him that dares not live." -Sir Henry Newbolt


The Shadow by Alfred Noyes


A shadow leaned over me, whispering, in the darkness,
Thoughts without sound;
Sorrowful thoughts that filled me with helpless wonder
And held me bound.
Sadder than memory, sharp as remorse, in ht qiet
Before I slept, The whisper I heard of the one implacable Shadow,
And my heart wept.
"Day by day, in your eyes, the light grows dimmer,
With the joy you have sung.
You knew it would go; but, ah, when you knew it and sang it,
Your heart was young;
"And a year to you, then, was an age; but now," said the Shadow,
Malignant and cold,
"The light and the colour are fading, the ecstasy dying,
It is time to grow old."
Oh, I could have borne the worst that he had to tell me,
Lost youth, age, death;
But he turned to breathe on the quiet heart sleeping beside me
The same cold breath.
And there by the throat I grappled him. "let me bear all of it.
let her dream on."
Soundlessly, shadow with shadow, we wrestled together,
Till the grey dawn."
