P R O E M

WITHIN the portals of this book abound,

Woven with beaten gold, the thoughts profound,

That stir the soul to ecstasy and bring

The Poet’s flights of fancy on the wing

To falter at thy feet. Here may they reach

The silent chambers of thy heart, and teach

That this, our only mission, is to send

To thee a heart-throb, Comrade, Brother, Friend!

G. Warren Landon.
