THE HEART'S PROOF, by JAMES BUCKHAM First Line: Do you ask me how I prove Last Line: By a thousand, thousand things! Alternate Author Name(s): Pastnor, Paul Subject(s): Faith; Belief; Creed | |||
Do you ask me how I prove That our Father, God, is love? By this world which He hath made, By the songs of grove and blade, By the brooks that singing run, By the shining of the sun, By the breeze that cools my brow, By fresh odors from the plow, By the daisy's golden head, Shining in the fields I tread, By the chorus of the bees In the flowering willow trees, By the gentle dews and rain, By the farmer's springing grain, By the light of golden eyes, By the sheen of forest leaves, By the sweets of woodland springs, By the joy right-doing brings By a thousand, thousand things! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...UNHOLY SONNET 4 by MARK JARMAN QUIA ABSURDUM by ROBINSON JEFFERS GOING TO THE HORSE FLATS by ROBINSON JEFFERS SONNET TO FORTUNE by LUCY AIKEN JONATHAN EDWARDS IN WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS by ROBERT LOWELL RELIGIOUS INSTRUCTION by MINA LOY A CHILD OF TODAY by JAMES BUCKHAM |
