    Alethea Kontis
    “When sad she brings the thunder
    And her tears, they bring the rain
    When ill she feeds a poison
    To us all to fell her pain
    Her smiles they bring the sunshine
    And the laughter and the wind
    And the birds they go on singing
    And the world is whole again.
    "Smile, sweet Sunday," Wednesday whispered in her ear. "The birds need your love so they can lift their wings.    ”

    Stephen Crane
    “Two or three angels
    Came near to the earth.
    They saw a fat church.
    Little black streams of people
    Came and went in continually.
    And the angels were puzzled
    To know why the people went thus,
    And why they stayed so long within.”
