Not a poem, but a couple of lines from As You Like It: I think about mortality more than I'd like, and this verse always stays with me. I suppose that it has a similar message to the The Swimmer's Moment, at least that's why I remember it.And so, from hour to hour, we ripe and ripe,
And then, from hour to hour, we rot and rot;
And thereby hangs a tale.
