A Beacon Light

________________________________________________
Title:     A Beacon Light
Author: Jared Barhite [More Titles by Barhite]

Adown the vistas of the past
I cast my memory's eye,
And see bright scenes receding fast,--
Some hopes in ruins lie;
Yet still there shines a beacon light
Whose ray on me descends,
And shows in its effulgency
A circle of true friends.

The magic charm this circle yields
Is richer far to me,
Than cattle in a thousand fields
Or gems from the deep sea;
It whispers softly in my ears
And cheers me on my way,
Gives faith for doubt and murky fears,
And comfort for dismay.




[The end]
Jared Barhite's poem: Beacon Light
