[Written for the Sentinel]

To-day

To-day, I talked with God when morning broke
And birds their matins sang, the leaves among;
And, in that sweet communion, my heart caught
A clear reflection of the radiant morn,
And worshiped, with all nature at His feet.

To-day, I walked with God the whole day through;
And children smiled at me, and I at them;
And man my brother seemed, unselfish, kind;
We jostled not each other in the throng;
The path seemed wide, for Love walked with us there.

O golden day, with Him in prayer begun,
His love thy benediction at the set of sun.
