First Line: Gray of the moss and gray of the rocks
Last Line: Glory of gray, mild and tender.
Subject(s): Gray (color); Grey (color)
Gray of the moss and gray of the rocks,
And gray of the sea-birds feather;
Gray of the mist and the hovering sky,
Soft gray of the tranquil weather.
Gray of the plume and gray of the pearl,
Gray of the silk worm's spinning;
Gray of the cradle where jewels bed,
And gray of the dawn's beginning.
Blessing of gray unto tired eyes,
A foil for the rainbow's splendor;
Beauty of gray in the ash of flame.
Glory of gray, mild and tender.
