“Day dawns, and all these lives that
lay hidden, asleep, come forth
and show themselves, made mortally
manifest. Night falls,
and all return to the sleeping
germ of life.

Best wishes
Dennis and Brad”

Found by Robert Riester, who says:

“This is from the 1966 printing and box sleeve version of Kahlil Gibran’s The Prophet, which I found discarded
in a shed behind my first home purchase. The inscription was written to Jane, and the book I believe to be a
1967 high school graduation gift.”
