    There is a mountain in the distant West
    That, sun-defying, in its deep ravines
    Displays a cross of snow upon its side.
    Such is the cross I wear upon my breast
    These eighteen years, through all the changing scenes
    And seasons, changeless since the day she died.
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)

    The holiest of all holidays are those
    Kept by ourselves in silence and apart;
    The secret anniversaries of the heart.
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)
