Old age, believe me, is
a good and pleasant thing.
It is true you are gently
shouldered off the stage,
but then you are given
such a comfortable front stall
as spectator.
Confucius
but evil mind
Persuades the mob,
great woes befall the state.
Euripides, Orestes
They were all dressed
in their finest
as though life really were
some magical stage play
in which every moment
ought to be illuminated
with its own bright spotlight.
Anna Godbersen
The world is a stage,
but the play
is badly cast.
Oscar Wilde
Beneath the moon’s
Soft silver gleam,
The world dissolves
Into a dream.
Petals close
Stars take flight,
Healing pervades
This quiet night.
A breath, a sigh
In stillness deep,
My soul surrenders
Gladly to sleep.
Where rivers glow
My memories play,
With dreams of tomorrow
As I drift away.
