So I Speak
Not for myself, but for the age unborn
I caught the fire from those who went before,
The bearers of the torch who could not see,
The goal of which they strained.
I caught their fire,
And carried it only a little way beyond;
But there are those that wait for it,
I know, those who will carry it on to victory
I dare not fail them.
Looking back, I see those others--
With their arms outstretched--
Pointing to the future.
