Look High

By Chas. D. Bulla

Look high, O soul! for what is wealth but dust, And the fleeting shadow of the better things? The heavens are thine if thou wilt use thy wings, And sighs are songs if thou wilt only trust.

Aim high, O soul! for on the higher forms Is always room; the lower ranks are filled. Who climbs the heights will find earth’s noises stilled, And a sweet calm and peace above the storms.

Be high, O soul! scorn what is low and base, Child of a king they call thee; be a king, And troops of vassals shall their tribute bring To crown thee heir of glory, child of grace.

—Chas. D. Bulla.
