My Friend, Look Up

By Frank S. Weston

Look up, friend! Wherefore do you look so sad, As if you'd lost all hope you ever had? “Art poor,” say you, “and must with misery sup”? Fie, man! hold up your head! Look up! Look up!
Who’s poor, save he who poorly does his task? Or who is rich, if we but lift life’s mask, Save he who has wherewith to sweet his cup? And have you none of this? Look up! Look up!
Make this your motto, and you can but thrive: God is above me, thither I will strive! In life’s great work our chance is never up Till death or guilt appear. Look up! Look up!
— Frank S. Weston.
