“When a historic building is left to decay,
A theatre where once, famous names used to play.
Its stage steeped with memories of happier days,
Of concerts, comedians and actors in plays.”
(G.B. Hough in Ode To A Dead Theatre (Morecambe Winter Gardens Uk))

“Sonne, herbstlich dünn und zag,
Und das Obst fällt von den Bäumen.
Stille wohnt in blauen Räumen
Einen langen Nachmittag.”

“It’s bright in the heavens and the wheels are flying
Fame and honor never seem to fade
The fire’s gone out but the light is never dying
Who says I can’t get heavenly aid?”
