Excerpt from Blossom From an Orchard: Poems, Songs, and Sonnets Dedication. See here I hold this in mine outstretched hand Across the waste of waters! and I cry "Take this as love's true offering! - this, that I Must long in vain, in that dear distant land, To kneel and lay with trembling where ye stand, And greet the touch of blessing! - Nay, 'tis small? Then add the hope that, holding my soul's all, Lies waiting at God's feet for His command. Haply 'twill never come: - yet to have hope Fails not with God, who looks beyond mere scope. Oh! that my lips could utter, words receive The thoughts which fill my heart! - Nay, words are weak. Oh! father, mother, bending down I leave God's self to whisper what I cannot speak!
