WHITE STAR OF TIME, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Each love-thought in thy mind doth rise
Last Line: In thee, white star of time!
Alternate Author Name(s): Macleod, Fiona
Subject(s): Heaven; Longing; Spiritual Life; Paradise


Each love-thought in thy mind doth rise
As some white cloud at even,
Till in sweet dews it falls on me
Athirst for thee, my Heaven!

My Heaven, my Heaven, thou art so far!
Stoop, since I cannot climb:
I would this wandering fire were lost
In thee, white Star of Time!
