Years are coming, years are going, creeds may change and pass away, But the light of love is growing stronger, surer, day by day. Be ye as the light of morning, like the beauteous dawn unfold, With your radiant lives adorning all the world in hues of gold. Selfish claims will soon no longer raise their harsh discordant sounds, For the law of love will conquer, bursting hatred's narrow bounds. Human love will spread a glory filling men with gladsome mirth, Songs of joy proclaim the story of a fair, transfigured earth. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...MYSTIC BOUNCE by TERRANCE HAYES MATHEMATICS CONSIDERED AS A VICE by ANTHONY HECHT UNHOLY SONNET 11 by MARK JARMAN SHINE, PERISHING REPUBLIC by ROBINSON JEFFERS THE COMING OF THE PLAGUE by WELDON KEES A LITHUANIAN ELEGY by ROBERT KELLY TIS A LITTLE JOURNEY by ANONYMOUS |
