Excerpt from An Anthology of Mother Verse: With an Introduction Hymn For The Mother My child is lying on my knees, The signs of heaven she reads, My face is all the heaven she sees, Is all the heaven she needs. And she is well, yea, bathed in bliss, If heaven is in my face, - Behind it is all tenderness And truthfulness and grace. I mean her well so earnestly, Unchanged in changing mood, My life would go without a sigh To bring her something good. I also am a child, and I Am ignorant and weak, I gaze upon the starry sky, And then I must not speak, For all behind the starry sky, Behind the world so broad, Behind men's hearts and souls doth lie The Infinite of God. Ay, true to her, though troubled sore, I cannot choose but be: Thou who art peace forevermore Art very true to me.
