Quote of the Day
The men who try to do something and fail are
indefintely better than those who try to do nothing and succeed."
- Lloyd Jones
Poem of the Day
Falling Leaves
A leaf falls . . .
from an errant elbow's downward thrust;
toppled burgundy christens snowy linen
and the dodging laps of suits and gowns.
A leaf falls . . .
to an eager reader's sudden frustration
at a maddening mystery's imminent unveiling
on a time-loosened final page.
A leaf falls . . .
amid blazing autumn glory unseen
by dodgers of life's indoor spills
and chasers of fanciful mysteries.
Jan Decker
