Within our grasp such seldom pass, Yet oft forborne without concern. Reach forth - Enhand the Ring of Brass. Solicitude invites surpass; Too soon a lesson we must learn. Within our grasp such seldom pass. Beyond our reach in swift bypass, Life's carousel in constant turn. Reach forth - Enhand the Ring of Brass. Encore at best a chance repass No surety of bout's return Within our grasp such seldom pass. Best not forego or overpass; Ne'er hesitate, remand or spurn. Reach forth - Enhand the Ring of Brass. Lest we partake life's looking glass, An opt for naught yields morrow's yearn; Within our grasp such seldom pass, Reach forth - Enhand the Ring of Brass. |

yeppers Nan, you the teacher I the fool that is why I've come to skool. Nice writ you done did Keth. Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant - Thoreau |
