To-day and To-Morrow

What Are Heavy?
by Christina Rossetti

What are heavy? Sea-sand and sorrow:
What are brief? To-day and to-morrow:
What are frail? Spring blossoms and youth:
What are deep? The ocean and truth.

As you probably have heard, Alfie Evans died yesterday at 2:30 am, on the Feast of St. Gianna Beretta Molla, patron saint of pediatricians and babies. May God have mercy on us all.
