Poems

Inspiration From a Song Sparrow

From the March 1956 issue of The Christian Science Journal


From dawn till night throughout the summer day
His song, a harbinger of heaven's harmony,
Floats far and wide from off the meadow grass,
Or orchard branch, a cheerful roundelay.
Thus as I journey through earth's troubled sea
And meet with many a weary, burdened one,
May I give cheer and love—God's gifts to all.
Remembering that song, that joyous melody
Shared so impartially, may I, with equal art
Some loving word or cheerful thought impart.
