Death

Title:     Death
Author: Charles Hamilton Musgrove [More Titles by Musgrove]

I am the outer gate of life where sit
Faith and Unfaith, those two interpreters
That spell in diverse ways what God has writ
In symbols on the archway of the years.

Backward I swing for many feet to pass;
Some come in stormy haste, some grave and slow,
And all like windy shadows on the grass:
Beyond my pale I know not where they go.

[The end]
Charles Hamilton Musgrove's poem: Death
