Friends-- Rescued- Recovered -Remembered
Where in this wide world can
man find nobility without pride,
Friendship without envy,
Or beauty without vanity?
Here, where grace is served with
muscle
And strength by gentleness
confined
He serves without servility; he
has fought without enmity.
There is nothing so powerful,
nothing less violent.
There is nothing so quick,
nothing more patient.
~Ronald Duncan, "The Horse,"
1954
