FRIENDS ON MARS, by                    
First Line: Now we have come into that larger place
Last Line: And go a-neighboring with friends on mars.
Subject(s): Mars (planet); Prophecy & Prophets; Stars


Now we have come into that larger place
Previsioned by the prophet and the seer,
Above the lines of time and measured space;
Here are the clear
Wide distances of an unfathomed day,
And we may watch the planets at their play.

The little limits of our borderland
Have given up their strict, denying hold;
We mount and mount among the shining spheres
And find the gold
And silver of infinities of stars,
And go a-neighboring with friends on Mars.
