When I was a sophomore in high school, we had to memorize and recite a poem in English class. Of course I chose one by Longfellow. It was entitled "The Builders".
. A classmate chose "I Have A Rendezvous With Death" by Alan
Seeger. I thought, oh why did she chose that one. I've read that poem several
times since then and I feel differently about it. We all have a rendezvous
with death and none shall fail that rendezvous.
