Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from My Candles and Other Poems My Cnadles Once in a seaport on the coast of France I found a tranquil church, time-scarred and gray, High on a hill, a beacon to the bay; I saw a rough lad reverently advance. Drop his small coin, and with an upward glance At the dim altar, light his candle. Yea, Amid the wild storm of the ocean spray This token had been vowed against mischance. "O Faith!" I cried, "Thou art a wondrous thing!" Forthwith I lighted candles that were mine - Tapers of trust in purpose, kindness, youth: Now, when the beating waves or still calms bring Discouragement, I bend before the shrine Of the dead mighty ones who strove for Truth.
