Excerpt from From Star to Star
Gone On!
Tall, slim and straight, with tossing head and flashing eye -
Gone on! straight on! the while this puny world rolls by.
With never pause for doubt - from battle front - gone on!
Straight on! his part here finished toward the victory won.
Clean noble soul, that lived for eons close to God;
Boy's body that a little while this earth had trod;
Gone on! with never stop nor falter - strong and free -
Smiling, singing - straight on! into the world to be.
Boy's courageous heart that loved his fellows all;
Boy's happy, loving smile that made of each his thrall;
Gone on! straight on! beyond the reach of mortal sight;
Only through Love, the eye of Faith can see the light.
Doffing the garb of earth, new form to don -
Making of Death a glorious Victory - gone on!
