She is too kind I think for mortal things	A
Too gentle for the gusty ways of earth	B
God gave to her a shy and silver mirth	B
And made her soul as clear	C
And softly singing as an orchard spring's	A
In sheltered hollows all the sunny year	C
A spring that thru the leaning grass looks up	D
And holds all heaven in its clarid cup	D
Mirror to holy meadows high and blue	E
With stars like drops of dew	E
	-
I love to think that never tears at night	F
Have made her eyes less bright	F
That all her girlhood thru	E
Never a cry of love made over tense	G
Her voice's innocence	H
That in her hands have lain	I
Flowers beaten by the rain	I
And little birds before they learned to sing	J
Drowned in the sudden ecstasy of spring	J
	-
I love to think that with a wistful wonder	K
She held her baby warm against her breast	L
That never any fear awoke whereunder	K
She shuddered at her gift or trembled lest	L
Thru the great doors of birth	B
Here to a windy earth	B
She lured from heaven a half unwilling guest	L
	-
She caught and kept his first vague flickering smile	M
The faint upleaping of his spirit's fire	K
And for a long sweet while	M
In her was all he asked of earth or heaven	N
But in the end how far	K
Past every shaken star	K
Should leap at last that arrow like desire	K
His full grown manhood's keen	O
Ardor toward the unseen	O
Dark mystery beyond the Pleiads seven	N
And in her heart she heard	P
His first dim spoken word	P
She only of them all could understand	Q
Flushing to feel at last	R
The silence over past	R
Thrilling as tho' her hand had touched God's hand	Q
But in the end how many words	S
Winged on a flight she could not follow	T
Farther than skyward lark or swallow	T
His lips should free to lands she never knew	E
Braver than white sea faring birds	S
With a fearless melody	U
Flying over a shining sea	U
A star white song between the blue and blue	E
	-
Oh I have seen a lake as clear and fair	K
As it were molten air	K
Lifting a lily upward to the sun	N
How should the water know the glowing heart	V
That ever to the heaven lifts its fire	K
A golden and unchangeable desire	K
The water only knows	W
The faint and rosy glows	W
Of under petals opening apart	V
Yet in the soul of earth	B
Deep in the primal ground	X
Its searching roots are wound	X
And centuries have struggled toward its birth	B
So in the man who sings	A
All of the voiceless horde	Y
From the cold dawn of things	A
Have their reward	Y
All in whose pulses ran	Z
Blood that is his at last	R
From the first stooping man	Z
Far in the winnowed past	R
Out of the tumult of their love and mating	J
Each one created seeing life was good	A2
Dumb till at last the song that they were waiting	J
Breaks like brave April thru a wintry wood	A2
