Excerpt from The Bells of Atchison: And Other Poems To My Father in Christ. To him who gently took my youthful hand, While yet in desert waste I wandered lone, Led me to pasture, rich with verdure grown, Where life in all its beauty could expand, Where springs Pierean water the thirsting land, - Pointed the way of peace, to earth unknown, Where the untrammeled heart, in sweetest tone, Pours out the songs that angels understand, - To him who patient watched my wanderings, Was father kind, when I was faithless son: To him, that son his hearts first harvestings Now consecrates. And may his lips anon Bless both the singer and his humble songs, Himself find bliss among the angel throngs.
