Dying to Live
July 2, 2018
Ash, ash—You poke and stir. Flesh, bone, there is nothing there—— (Sylvia Plath)
Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth (John Gillespie Magee Jr)
Since then – ‘tis Centuries – and yet - Feels shorter than the Day (Emily Dickinson)
But for those who love, time is Eternity (Mary Oliver)
For my sake turn again to life and smile (Mary Lee Hall)
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? (Harry Scott-Holland)
