A poem by Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Reflection

________________________________________________
Title:     Reflection
Author: Ella Wheeler Wilcox [More Titles by Wilcox]

Twice have I seen God's full reflected grace.
Once when the wailing of a child at birth
Proclaimed another soul had come to earth,
That look shone on, and through the mother's face.

And once when silence, absolute and vast,
Followed the final indrawn mortal breath,
Sudden upon the countenance of death
That supreme glory of God's grace was cast.






[The end]
Ella Wheeler Wilcox's poem: Reflection
