THE RIVER
Senior Poem Written by Edna
Hathaway
Surging and foaming, along its swift
course.
Leaping rocks, passing in baste
O'er mighty cataracts, spending Its
force.
Dashing on dikes, nature-placed.
Rushes the River, gathering strength
Augmented by rivulets in its swift
race
Till In the face of the onset at length.
Quivers a bank, flood-eaten at base.
Startles the violets and ferns on Us
brow,
Tears at the moss roots, loath to de
part. Happy with all the gifts God could
endow
Wood-plants, we linger, we try without
art.
All In vain we draw farther from our
beloved dell.
Primeval solitude, silence and age,
Uncounted legends of former days tell.
Heroes of history sung by the sage;
Arts and the science of brush and of
pen;
Uee of the forces of earth and of air.
This may be read In the life of the
glen
Read in the open book Nature holds
there.
Still the bank trembles for one brief
hour i
Clings that it might live once more
The beautiful past, its most precioua
dower
Priceless, now drowned in the wilder
Ing roar
Of waterfalls plunging and dashing be
low. Sunlight recall, and the wonderful
daya
Of companionship. All we owe
To those brave pilot petals who their
separate ways
Followed with the courage of freedom
and love.
With never a thought of the price or
the cost
Of the shellshot Journey on which
thy move,
Names writ In scarlet, on our hearts
embossed.
Always In love b they gratefully
held.
Lo! The bank breaks from its moor
ing and rest,
Waves-for an Instant are silenced and
quelled.
Wood plants detached, staunch and
upright
Float on the River, saTe on our way,
Heyond see a land, sunny and bright
Beneath Is the River whose will wo
obey.
EDNA HATHWAY.
