Thomas S. Jones, Jr. Glad Poems
- 1. The Last Spring
The first glad token of the Spring is here
That bears each time one miracle the more,
For in the sunlight is the golden ore,
The joyous promise of a waking year;
... - 2. The Garden
Behind the pinions of the Seraphim,
Whose wings flame out upon the swinging spheres,
There is a Voice that speaks the numbered years
Until that Day when all comes back to Him;
... - 3. In Excelsis
Spring!
And all our valleys turning into green,
Remembering-
As I remember! So my heart turns glad
...
