Poem-

Into the sunshine,

Full of the light,

Leaping and flashing

From morn till night!

                               

                        Into the moonlight,

                        Whiter than snow.

                        Waving so flower-like

                        When the winds blow!

Into the starlight,

Rushing in spray,

Happy at midnight,

Happy by day!

                 Every in motion,

                 Blithesome and cherry,

                 Steel climbing heavenward

                 Never a weary;

Glad of all weathers,

Still seeming best,

Upward or downward

Motion the rest;

              Full of nature

              Nothing can take,

             Changed every moment,

             Ever the same,

Ceaseless aspiring,

Ceaseless contant,

Darkness or Sunshine,

Thy element;

              Glorious fountain!

              Let my heart be

              Fresh, changeful, constant,

              Upward like thee!
