Memory of Good Deeds

Edwin Markham

The memory of good deeds will ever stay,
A lamp to light us on the darkened way,
A music to the ear on clamoring street,
A cooling well amid the noonday heat.
A Scent of green boughs blown through narrow walls,
A feel of rest when quiet evening falls.

Edwin Markham.
In "Lincoln and other Poems."
