Lucky Lindy! |
American aviatrix and author
(and the wife of Charles Lindbergh) Anne Morrow Lindbergh died on this day in
2001. She wrote:
“When the wedding march sounds the resolute
approach, the clock no longer ticks, it tolls the hour. The figures in the
aisle are no longer individuals, they symbolize the human race.”
Today’s
Deathless Verse:
Old men, looking back,
May
crack:
“I’d rather be wed
Than dead.
But given the choice
Of joys,
The prospect of life
Sans wife
Surpasses one rife
With strife—
A series of wrecks,
With sex.”
