Classic and Contemporary Poetry

AD ASTRA: 34 by CHARLES WHITWORTH WYNNE

First Line: THEN LET THE FUTURE CRADLE WHAT IT MAY
Last Line: WHO LIVES FOR GOD, FEARETH NO WIND OF STRIFE.
Subject(s): CHILDREN; MOTHERS; CHILDHOOD;
Then let the Future cradle what it may,
It cannot so the Mind invalidate
That Man would let her Queendom pass away,
And Nature's beauty be determinate.
She who reveals with mother-heart elate
The daily need of this our little life—
Who lives for God, feareth no wind of strife.
