His Mansion

Title:     His Mansion
Author: Ella Wheeler Wilcox [More Titles by Wilcox]

There was a thought he hid from all men's eyes,
And by his prudent life and deeds of worth
He left a goodly record upon earth
As one both pure and wise.

But when he reached a dark unsightly door
Beyond the grave, there stood his secret thought.
It was the mansion he had built and brought
To dwell in, on that shore.

[The end]
Ella Wheeler Wilcox's poem: His Mansion
