The Wanderer

Topics: classic

To Youth there comes a whisper out of the west:             "O loiterer, hasten where there waits for thee         A life to build, a love therein to nest,             And a man's work, serving the age to be."         Peace, peace awhile!    Before his tireless feet             Hill beyond hill the road in sunlight goes;         He breathes the breath of morning, clear and sweet,             And his eyes love the high eternal snows.
