Before us great Death stands
Our fate held close within his quiet hands.
When with proud joy we lift Life’s red wine
To drink deep of the mystic shining cup
And ecstasy through all our being leaps—
Death bows his head and weeps.
Rainer Maria Rilke

Think sometimes we get infected with inspiration. Probably because of all that love you spread around. 🙂
