LIFE
Life is a sheet of paper white,
Whereon each one of us may write
His word or two, and then comes
night.
“Lo, time and space enough”, we i
cry,
“To write an epic”! So we try
Our nibs upon the edge and die.
Muse not which way the pen toj
hold;
Luck hates the slow and loves the
bold;
Soon comes the darkness and the
cold.
Greatly begin! Though thou have
time
But for a line, be that sublime.
Not failure, but low aim, is crime.
