BETHLEHEM, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: I shall not tarry over scrolls
Last Line: A savior for my hungry heart.
Subject(s): Bethlehem, Palestine


I shall not tarry over scrolls
That chart the planets of the night;
Nor follow paths of endless goals,
The ordered orbs of Heaven's light;
Nor shall I halt with sense and mind
At palace, porch or merchant's mart:
My caravan shall press to find
A Savior for my hungry heart.
