THOUGHT SPRINGS.
If when those springs that filter through the brain
Seem stopped, and all thought's ebbing cisterns low,
We draw upon the little they contain,
Soon, soon the springs will flow.
Seem stopped, and all thought's ebbing cisterns low,
We draw upon the little they contain,
Soon, soon the springs will flow.
For all around us hangs thought-laden'd air,
And thro' all earth the living waters break;
Believing all we seek is here and there,
We need but reach and take.
And thro' all earth the living waters break;
Believing all we seek is here and there,
We need but reach and take.
Defer solicitation, and the springs
Soon bid their waters find another way;
But drawing daily of their plenty, brings
Abundance day by day.
Soon bid their waters find another way;
But drawing daily of their plenty, brings
Abundance day by day.
