as the planet dies....

Post by The Rizen shloemoe »

Im reminded of a passage within a novel by Sinclair Lewis
I once read in prison "Elmer Gantry".......

Love is the only bow on life's dark cloud.
It is the Morning and the Evening Star.
It shines upon the cradle of the babe, and
sheds its radiance upon the quiet tomb.
It is the mother of Art, inspirer of poet,
patriot and philosopher. It is the air and
light of every heart, builder of every home,
kindler of every fire on every hearth. It
was the first to dream of immortality. It
fills the world with melody, for Music is
the voice of Love. Love is the magician,
the enchanter, that changes worthless things
to joy, and makes right royal kings and
queens of common clay. It is the perfume
of the wondrous flower--the heart--and without
that sacred passion, that divine swoon, we
are less than beasts; but with it, earth is
heaven and we are gods.

--Robert Ingersoll

our love light is dim...time is slipping away....
