SOWERS' SONG, by CONRAD FERDINAND MEYER Poet's Biography First Line: Keep your step and keep your swing Last Line: And god's good-pleasure guides them all. Alternate Author Name(s): Meyer, Konrad Subject(s): Sowing And Sowers | ||||||||
KEEP your step and keep your swing! The earth is young with every spring. Yon seed that dies will bear no wheat, Yet it fares well, for rest is sweet. Another through the sod makes way, It too fares well, for sweet is day. Not one from out this world may fall And God's good-pleasure guides them all. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...BUT THE SUN IS EVER YOUTHFUL by CONRAD FERDINAND MEYER CHRISTMAS IN AJACCIO by CONRAD FERDINAND MEYER DO THOU SPEAK NOW by CONRAD FERDINAND MEYER SCHILLER'S BURIAL by CONRAD FERDINAND MEYER THE DEAD CHILD by CONRAD FERDINAND MEYER THE FEET IN THE FIRE by CONRAD FERDINAND MEYER THEME by CONRAD FERDINAND MEYER PISCATAQUA RIVER by THOMAS BAILEY ALDRICH A BOOK OF AIRS: SONG 12.
