O FAITHFUL eyes, day after day as I see and know you—unswerving faithful and beautiful—going about your ordinary work unnoticed, I have noticed—I do not forget you. I know the truth the tenderness the courage, I know the longings hidden quiet there. Go right on. Have good faith yet—keep that your unseen treasure untainted. Many shall bless you. To many yet, though no word be spoken, your face shall shine as a lamp. It shall be remembered, and that which you have desired—in silence—shall come abundantly to you. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...HOW THEY BROUGHT THE GOOD NEWS FROM GHENT TO AIX by ROBERT BROWNING WHAT OF THE DARKNESS?; TO THE HAPPY DEAD PEOPLE by RICHARD THOMAS LE GALLIENNE THE GHOSTS OF THE BUFFALOES by NICHOLAS VACHEL LINDSAY SONNET: 24.
