A poem by Henry Van Dyke

The Prison And The Angel

________________________________________________
Title:     The Prison And The Angel
Author: Henry Van Dyke [More Titles by Van Dyke]

Self is the only prison that can ever bind the soul;
Love is the only angel who can bid the gates unroll;
And when he comes to call thee, arise and follow fast;
His way may lie through darkness, but it leads to light at last.





[The end]
Henry Van Dyke's poem: Prison And The Angel
