POEM
To every thing there is A time to every purpose under the heaven:
A time to be bom,, and a time to die; A time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which
is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal; A time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep and a time to laugh; a time to Mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones and a time to Gather stones together; A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embaracing; A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to Keep and a time to cast away; A time to read and a time to sew, a time to Keep a time to love* and a time of war, and a time Of peace*
