A Poem by Thayne Whipple
Daily Breath
Jan 12, 2016
Is it our right,
We mortal souls who err,
We mortal souls who err,
To take away
That which we cannot give?
That which we cannot give?
Are we as God
Who gives life daily breath?
Who gives life daily breath?
Or merely are
We beggars for that gift?
We beggars for that gift?
If one should not
Deprive a fellow life -
Deprive a fellow life -
In symphony,
This power should we wield?
This power should we wield?
