A poem by Madison Julius Cawein

Success

________________________________________________
Title:     Success
Author: Madison Julius Cawein [More Titles by Cawein]

How some succeed who have least need,
In that they make no effort for!
And pluck, where others pluck a weed,
The burning blossom of a star,
Grown from no earthly seed.

For some shall reap that never sow;
And some shall toil and not attain,--
What boots it in ourselves to know
Such labor here is not in vain,
When we still see it so!






[The end]
Madison Julius Cawein's poem: Success
