Classic Poem

From early dawn until the flush of noon
And from hot noon unto the hushèd night
I look around beholding all things bright
From the deep sun unto the silver moon
My heart & soul & spirit are in tune.
My sense is gladdened with an inward light.
The very clouds above my head are white
And glorious radiance shall disperse them soon.
All trees & bushes fruits & flowers bear,
The sea is full of life & beauty, how
The grand waves leap up—as tho' full of sense,
A better day was not I think & ne'er
Was I so full of joy as I am now.
Surely a chill shall come & this go hence
