Excerpt from Max Ehrmann's Poems
After the smoke and roaring and desolation of the battle of middle life, long marches and countermarches, privation, dreary, godless skies, and speechless weariness, After changes and the death of the beloved and all who knew you in your youth.

Max Ehrmann was an attorney turned philosopher-poet who lived in Terre Haute, Indiana. He spent his life wrestling with the realities of making a living and following his personal calling to a life of poetry, literature, and thought. Ehrmann wrote A Prayer, which became a message of hope for thousands, but he is best known for Desiderata, which he wrote for himself, ?because it counsels those virtues I felt myself most in need of.? Ehrmann included this work as part of a personal Christmas greeting in 1933, and Desiderata's power and appeal have continued to reach out to and significantly affect readers ever since. Ehrmann died in 1945.
