EARTH IS ENOUGH.
We men of earth have here the stuff Of Paradise—we have enough! We need no other thing to build The stairs into the Unfulfilled — No other ivory for the doors — No other marble for the floorsNo other cedar for the beam And dome of man's immortal dream. Here on the paths of everyday, Here on the common human way, Is all the stuff the gods would take To build a Heaven, to mold and make New Edens. Ours the stuff sublime To build Eternity in timo! —Edwin Markham.
