Angling - ZaunköniG - 16.07.2007 Angling Go, take thine angle, and with practised line, Light as the gossamer, the current sweep; And if thou failest in teh calm still deep, In the rough eddy may the prize be thine. Say thou'rt unlucky where the sunbeams shine; Beneath teh shadow, where the waters creep, Perchance the monarch of the brook shall leap-- For fate is ever better than design. Still persevere; the giddiest breeze that blows, For thee may blow with fame and fortune rife; Be prosperous--and what reck if it arose Out of some pebble with the stream at strife; Or that the light wind dallied with the boughs? Thou art successful;--such is human life. |
