IN SHADOW, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Heeds yonder star thy song
Last Line: "appears a star."
Alternate Author Name(s): Father Tabb
Subject(s): Birds


Heeds yonder star thy song,
O warbler of the night?
"I know not, for the way is long
That leads unto the light.
But as the music of the spheres
A twinkling silence here appears,
Perchance my warbling from afar
Appears a star."
