That her sleep may go <br class="">
Where angels have their pale tall choirs <br class="">

Be a hand, sea, <br class="">
That her dreams may watch <br class="">
Thy guidesman touching the green flesh of the world <br class="">
<br class="">
Be a voice, sky, <br class="">
That her beauties may be counted <br class="">
And the stars will tilt their quiet faces <br class="">
Into the mirror of her loveliness <br class="">
<br class="">
Be a road, earth, <br class="">
That her walking may take thee <br class="">
Where the towns of heaven lift their breathing spires <br class="">
<br class="">
O be a world and a throne, God, <br class="">
That her living may find its weather <br class="">
And the souls of ancient bells in a child's book <br class="">
Shall lead her into Thy wondrous house</span></p><p style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; min-height: 15px;" class=""><span style="font-kerning: none" class=""> </span><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></p><div class=""><span style="font-kerning: none" class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span></span>- Kenneth Patchen</div>
