Tell me not, in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream!
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem.
Life is real! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not the goal;
Dust thou art, to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882)
A Psalm of Life, 1839

I love this poem.
It reminds me that life is short...
we need to make to most of it.
Please, if you haven't already... quit smoking. _________________
