"MY PEOPLE SHALL NEVER BE ASHAMED"

Carobeth Laird

My people shall not ever be ashamed—Sweet promise ringing down the path of years!Not even memory of heart untamedCan darken present bliss with shame or tears;For infinite and all-inclusive MindContains no record of the unclean thing,The fault, the failure, or the deed unkind,The faltering footstep, or the broken wing.
