Miracles.

Topics: classic

Love met a worldling on the way,          And softly crept into his breast.         Straight Self and Greed refused to stay          Where Love had dared to make his nest.         Love met a mourner on the road,          And said: "I'll bear thee company."         Full soon the mourner lost his load          Of grief, and care, and misery.         Into a grim and cheerless home          Love forced his way through barriers tall;         Fled wretchedness, and chill, and gloom -          The golden sunshine flooded all.
