ACCEPTATION by JOHN GALSWORTHY

First Line: BLUE SKY, GREY STONES, AND THE FAR SEA
Last Line: YOU ARE! AND MUST ACCEPTED BE!
BLUE sky, grey stones, and the far sea,
The lark's song trilling over me;
Grey stones, blue sky, and the green weed --
You have no sense that I can read;
Nor on the wind's breath passing by
Comes any meaning melody!
Blue sky, grey stones, and the far sea,
Lark's song, green weed, wind melody --
You are! And must accepted be!
