Excerpt from Dipped From the Stream: A Composite of Verses Dipped From the Stream of Sympathy, Sentiment and Truth
After All
They may say when my labors are ended
That I lacked all the gifts of the great,
They may find in my work nothing splendid,
And may call it but third or fourth rate,
They may pity me even for trying
To climb to a place on the height,
They may scorn all my efforts, denying
That my pinions Were fashioned for flight.
They may turn from me when they have weighed me
And sap I was Wanting, and then
Permit me to rest where they've laid me,
Ignored and forgotten by men,
But, even so, shall my endeavor
Be deemed unavailing or small?
Better that than be one whom they'll never
Consider worth weighing at all.
