Excerpt from Collected Shorter Poems
Invocation
Seed thoughts sown for centuries,
Germs of hidden truth,
Words to wing their way, may these
Lodge in heart of youth!
New birth life, that in the spring
Uplift gives earth's soil,
Greenness, fragrance offering,
Blooming as men toil.
Truth imperishable shall tell
Races that shall be
Progress, though dark days befell,
War's adversity:
That men shall a manhood know
That will not kill its kind,
Choosing reason, will forego
Force, for God-like mind.
Strains of far-off melodies
Ears attuned shall hear
Tell a happy day that lies
Beyond realms of fear:
Until purpose and the plan
Seen in Maker's mind
Be accomplished, the earth span,
God live in mankind.
Seed thoughts, seed words, herein sown,
Send through centuries
Inspirations, promptings known,
Light the poet sees.
