Wakening

Title:     Wakening
Author: John Oxenham [More Titles by Oxenham]

This mortal dies,--
But, in the moment when the light fails here,
The darkness opens, and the vision clear
Breaks on his eyes.
The vail is rent,--
On his enraptured gaze heaven's glory breaks,
He was asleep, and in that moment wakes.

[The end]
John Oxenham's poem: Wakening
