Willard Wattles Poems
- 1. Jerico
Jerico, Jerico,
Round and round the walls I go
Where they watch with scornful eyes,
Where the captained bastions rise;
... - 2. Hrolf's Thrall, His Song
There be five things to a man's desire:
Kine flesh, roof-tree, his own fire,
Clean cup of sweet wine from goat's hide,
And through dark night one to lie beside.
... - 3. Acceptance
I cannot think nor reason,
I only know he came
With hands and feet of healing
And wild heart all aflame.
