The entrance place of wonders (William Stanley Braithwaite)


I am glad day long for the gift of song, 
For time and change and sorrow; 
For the sunset wings and the world end things, 
Which hang on the edge of tomorrow. 
 
I am glad for my heart, whose gates apart 
Are the entrance place of wonders; 
Where dreams come in from the rush and din, 
Like sheep from the rains and thunder.

 --William Stanley Braithwaite
