Mary Alice Walton Spirit Poems

  • 1.
    Waiting, dreaming, waiting, by some flowing mystic rill,
    Waiting, hoping, waiting, strong desires my spirit fill;
    Waiting, restless waiting, Oh! could I join the busy throng,
    Waiting, patient waiting, for right to triumph over wrong.

  • 2.
    The home of my soul, worn and weary,
    And pierced by the rocks of old time,
    The windows grown dim and the key-boards
    Were mute to the wind's whispered chime.
    ...
  • 3.
    Suspending night with threads of light the sun with signals bold,
    Flashed o'er to moon his mate on high, and wondrous secret told;
    Together they a photograph of mother earth would make,
    When midnight dropped her curtains low and watching stars locked gate.

    On Canaan's fairest borders, in thought, I seemed to stand,
    I'd left my broken palace for this long-wished-for land.
    On earth for me they're mourning, friends weeping sad and low,
    It seemed the bells were sobbing, my joy there none could know.

    God calls you, my Daughter-I hear the sweet voice
    Of Jesus our Saviour, He would make you His choice,
    To work in His vineyard, to teach in His name;
    He'd give you the power, lost souls to reclaim.

    On starlit height, distant ‘gainst horizon, bright
    The Way of the Cross is outlined,
    By rocky steeps barren 'mid dangers unseen,
    A narrow straight pathway doth wind.

  • 7.
    Father, before Thee I am kneeling
    In gratitude and love,
    Sad, weary years I sought, appealing
    For succor from above.
    ...
  • 8.
    Glad boyish voices with merriment ring,
    Two children with nought, as gayly they sing
    Of burdensome care, their hearts as the bird
    To mountains oft' soar in freedom, unstirred
    ...
  • 9.
    Sometime the golden gates will lift,
    I know not how nor when 'twill be,
    My soul, the one immortal gift,
    Will stand beside the changeless sea.

Edgar Albert Guest Poem
The Killing Place
 by Edgar Albert Guest

We're hiking along at a two-forty pace
We 're making life seem like a man-killing race,
With our nerves all on edge and our jaws firmly set
We go rushing along; with our brows lined with sweat
And our cheeks pale and drawn every minute we dash,
And the goal that we 're after is merely more cash.

We 're out for the money, the greenbacks and gold,
