To the last moment of his breath
On hope the wretch relies;
And e'en the pang preceding death
Bids expectation rise.


Hope, like the gleaming taper's light,
Adorns and cheersour way;
And still, as darker grows the night,
Emits a brighter ray.

OLIVER GOLDSMITH,

Your image drives home the concept of heat. The words push it over the top! danrav · 2012-04-19: 21:31

Wow, Satish, that hot already? Or always? We sometimes have that temperature here in Memphis,TN, in the summer, but I am telling you it is not fun, especially if the humidity is high... atszabo · 2012-04-19: 21:35
