You have no enemies, you say?

Alas, my friend, the boast is poor,

For those who have mingled in the fray

Of duty, that the brave endure,

Must have made foes.

If you have none,

Small is the work that you have done.

You’ve hit no traitor on the hip,

You’ve dashed no cup from purjured lip,

You’ve never set the wrong to right.

You’ve been a coward in the fight.

My friend Nancy sent this to me in response to my post

Bring It On Home Baby….

The thought was appreciated and I’d like to share it here and dedicate it to all of my friends who have ever stood up and spoken out.
