Poem July 22, 1972 Issue

COUNSEL

Alan W. Thwaites

In your dark night
Do not go down into the valley.
It would be easy, but then
There would only be
The long climb out again.

It would be wise
To stay up on the height;
The stars are bright,
And from there one can see
An earlier sunrise.

Alan W. Thwaites
