Religion
Intimations
From The Coat Without a Seam (1919)
Religion
I have seen the Wind,
I have seen him plain--
The silver feet of the Wind
Racing on the rain.
I have seen Time pass:
Viewless as he sped,
The red sand in the glass
Was shaken by his tread.
Far, far the goal,
And hearts must part awhile--
But I have seen the Soul
Shining through a smile.
Dim, dim the plan,
And dumb is the clod:
But in the eyes of Man
I have seen--God.
