~POEM FOR THE DAY

I believe in the brook as it wanders
   From hillside into glade;
I believe in the breeze as it whispers
   When evening's shadows fade.
I believe in the roar of the river
   As it dashes from high cascade;
I believe in the cry of the tempest
   'Mid the thunder's cannonade.
I believe in the light of shining stars,
   I believe in the sun and the moon;
I believe in the flash of lightning,
   I believe in the night-bird's croon.
I believe in the faith of the flowers,
   I believe in the rock and sod,
For in all of these appeareth clear
   The handiwork of God.
