SONS OF PROMISE, by THOMAS CURTIS CLARK First Line: In every meanest face I see Last Line: But has for him some treasure chaste. Subject(s): Brotherhood; Men | ||||||||
In every meanest face I see A perfected humanity; All men, though brothers of the clod, Bear promise of the sons of God. No human ore that does not hold A precious element of gold; No heart so blackened and debased But has for Him some treasure chaste. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LIE DOWN WITH A MAN by TONY HOAGLAND WHY ARE YOUNG MEN SO UGLY by TONY HOAGLAND SONG OF MEN by EDGAR LEE MASTERS FIRST LESSON by PHYLLIS MCGINLEY ABRAHAM LINCOLN by THOMAS CURTIS CLARK |
