UNCHANGED
How comforting to know That flowers bloom as gaily every year, Untouched by nations’ fear; Their fragrant petals always grow After winter snow. Each April dawn the birds still sing Their clear joyous song, Unconscious of the sadness or the wrong That tyranny might bring— Only knowing spring. And stars still shine in quiet space With rays undimmed—as bright As when peace gave delight And gladness to each face. Have we this changeless grace? —Frances M. Pray
