Excerpt from Sparklets
Brave spirit dethroned, yet you must not fall, Though thy plumage bedrabbled, thy beauty torn; Onward, higher, in brighter realms installed; Fate's mistaken way thou must not mourn.
Yet Want, like rust, eats into the ambitious soul, And stabs the will till the heart is faint.
Fate springs a leak in the brimming bowl, And turns the Angel into a Devil's saint.
Life grows sluggish, weary and dull; The soul hath lack of all that's good The nerves are unstrung, a perfect lull Seem to have taken possession of the braver mood.
