Poets - ZaunköniG - 21.05.2007 Poets O, There are gentle souls on earth imbued With love of man and nature’s loveliness, Who, like fair trees uprising ‘mid a wood, Grow toward heaven, the while they ever bless With pleasing shade and liberal fruitfulness The seeker at their feet. Warm gratitude Be theirs, and theirs the soft caress Of gentlest zephyrs; be their solitude Made populous with angels, all sublime Their history, and when the woodmen come, Transplanting them to that far sunnier clime Where Eden’s bays will rustle welcomes home, Then may their lives, as some grand epic tome, Close with a lofty hope, like an immortal rhyme. |
