Classic and Contemporary Poetry
VERITAS, by BERNICE BROWN BETTMAN
First Line: By wind and flame
Last Line: Of the wind.
Subject(s): Wind
First Line: By wind and flame
Last Line: Of the wind.
Subject(s): Wind
By wind and flame
Are lifted up
The mind and body
While they sup.
But wind outlasts
The flame and so
Reason finds
Where feet may go.
Yet seek in vain
When trees are thinned
The changing shadow
Of the wind.
