Progress

By Llewellyn A Morrison
Tho scant the motion, wave by wave Yet, still, the tide creeps onward. We climb like corals, grave by grave, Yet lift a broad land sunward. Tho beaten sore in many a fray, Strengthen from Defeat we borrow, And where the vanguard fights to-day The rear-guard camps to-morrow.
Tho shadows veil the glory now, The promised morn is breaking; And rays that kiss yon mountain's brow, Will soon these vales be waking. Tho Pain and Poverty hold sway, And Want keeps tryst with Sorrow, Yet Joy's white lilies bud to-day And Easter blooms to-morrow.
