Guest guest Posted November 11, 2001 Report Share Posted November 11, 2001 Youth In the wild there is no justice Nor is there a punishment. When the willows cast their shadow O'er the ground without consent, No one hears the cypress saying, " This act is versus law and right. " Like the snow, our Human Justice Melts from shame in warm sunlight! Give to me the reed and sing thou! Song to heart is judge sublime, And the plaint of reed remaineth After the end of guilt and crime. -Kahlil Gibran I was quite impressed by this piece by Kahlil Gibran and found so much in this. Hope that you find something as well. In love and frienship, Harold http://gemsofthought.tripod.com/poetry/ --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
