A poem by Charles Lamb

Motes In The Sun-Beams

________________________________________________
Title:     Motes In The Sun-Beams
Author: Charles Lamb [More Titles by Lamb]

The motes up and down in the sun
Ever restlessly moving we see;
Whereas the great mountains stand still,
Unless terrible earthquakes there be.

If these atoms that move up and down
Were as useful as restless they are,
Than a mountain I rather would be
A mote in the sun-beam so fair.






[The end]
