#104 On the 100th Anniversary of the Death of Abraham L
a man, complex in his simplicity has gone
unnoticed. his eyes touhed us like
a feather burnt too soon by the ice
of hate. his mouth too often breathed
words not known or too soon for our
closed ears. his work has been the
labor in tears of one-hundred years.
his love has been inhaled by the prisoned
free and exhaled thru their endless
walk to truth. his humbled hands once
held a world swiftly kissed by his
blushing mouth. his heart once
beat to the thumping rhythm of war
and now it beats in sorrowing peace
with mine. today no one remembered,
but god gave him a quiet tribute - a
century of years have folded one inside
the other, but today, suddenly in the rain,
on every reborn tree, there was a bud.
Our wedding was many years ago. The celebration
continues to this day. ~ Gene Perret
The difficulty with marriage is that we fall in love with a personality,
but must live with a character. ~Peter Devries
Infatuation is when you think he's as sexy as Robert Redford, as smart as
Henry Kissinger, as noble as Ralph Nader, as funny as Woody Allen, and as
athletic as Jimmy Conners. Love is when you realize that he's as sexy as
Woody Allen, as smart as Jimmy Connors, as funny as Ralph Nader, as athletic
as Henry Kissinger and nothing like Robert Redford - but you'll take him
anyway. ~Judith Viorst, Redbook, 1975da

A man reserves his true and deepest love not for
the species of woman in whose company he finds himself electrified and
enkindled, but for that one in whose company he may feel tenderly drowsy.
