Thomas S. Jones, Jr. Love Poems
- 1. The Path Of The Stars
Down through the spheres that chant the Name of One
Who is the Law of Beauty and of Light
He came, and as He came the waiting Night
Shook with the gladness of a Day begun;
... - 2. The Garden
Behind the pinions of the Seraphim,
Whose wings flame out upon the swinging spheres,
There is a Voice that speaks the numbered years
Until that Day when all comes back to Him;
... - 3. Joyous-gard
Wind-washed and free, full-swept by rain and wave,
By tang of surf and thunder of the gale,
Wild be the ride yet safe the barque will sail
And past the plunging seas her harbor brave;
... - 4. In Excelsis
Spring!
And all our valleys turning into green,
Remembering-
As I remember! So my heart turns glad
...
