A poem by Edgar A. Guest

Success [I hold no dream of fortune vast]

________________________________________________
Title:     Success [I hold no dream of fortune vast]
Author: Edgar A. Guest [More Titles by Guest]

I hold no dream of fortune vast,
Nor seek undying fame.
I do not ask when life is past
That many know my name.

I may not own the skill to rise
To glory's topmost height,
Nor win a place among the wise,
But I can keep the right.

And I can live my life on earth
Contented to the end,
If but a few shall know my worth
And proudly call me friend.





[The end]
Edgar A. Guest's poem: Success
