Youth is stranger than fiction.

Oh! death will find me, long before I tire Of watching for you and swing me suddenly Into the shade and loneliness and mire Of the last land!

Rupert Brooke
Image
Ponder deep wisdom, dark or clear, Each secret fishy hope or fear. Fish say, they have their Stream and Pond But is there anything Beyond?

Rupert Brooke
Image
War knows no power. Safe shall be my going, Secretly armed against all death's endeavour Safe though all safety's lost safe where men fall And if these poor limbs die, safest of all.
Rupert Brooke

Love is a breach in the walls, a broken gate, Love sells the proud heart's citadel to fate.
