WORK

Olive Scholes

Whatever work is done
Based on the thought of self
And wrought unto that end alone,
Narrowed and limited to that same end,
Time-bound, decays.

Whatever work is done
Selfless, inspired by good
And wrought in Mind's enlightening plan,
Widened, unfolding, ever stands secure
In Science, blest.
