THE SHADOW
by william L. Shirer

This shadow of the cross. though it has
physical being and can be seen by men
and felt. is beyond their reach and powers.
Each day, as the sun starts to go down,
it will move eastward unimpeded across
the formidable line of the Iron Curtain -
serving as an indestructible reminder to
the oppressed that there is hope.
