The Difference

BY EDWARD A. JENKS

It may have been a dream—but beautiful at first:I found myself upon a breezy eminenceAt sunrise; and the hill was one great flashing opalIn the bright morning sun, blushing resplendentlyBeneath his passionate June kisses; and the oaksThat crowned the hill stretched out their glist'ning, pleadingarmsFor more—and more—and more.

Sonnet

William Lyman Johnson

Because as Christ willed I have tried to wing'Bove earth to seek Life's steady-burning light,Men sneer, and curse me as a leper-blightOn holy rights, call me apostate King,And stone me with their thoughts of hate, and flingMe from their hearts, and in despiteMy proofs of truth still with a pagan mightThey crucify my heaven-endeavoring.
Poem

BY BERT POOLE
