-- Nothing Less, Nothing More -- John Herlihy The night long The day short The hour heavy The seconds light The threshold near The horizon far The heart open The mind closed The pathway long The distance short The betrayal soon The promise late The smile sweet The frown sour Patience beautiful Impatience ugly Loving rich Hating poor Nothing less Nothing more - - - - - Copyright © John Herlihy Thursday 22 September 2022
