The Slave Singing at Midnight
Loud he sang the psalm of David!He, a Negro and enslaved,Sang of Israel's victory,Sang of Zion, bright and free.In that hour, when night is calmest,Sang he from the Hebrew Psalmist,In a voice so sweet and clearThat I could not choose but hear,Songs of triumph, and ascriptions,Such as reached the swart Egyptians,When upon the Red Sea coastPerished [...]
The Quadroon Girl
The Slaver in the broad lagoonLay moored with idle sail;He waited for the rising moon,And for the evening gale.Under the shore his boat was tied,And all her listless crewWatched the gray alligator slideInto the still bayou.Odors of orange-flowers, and spice,Reached them from time to time,Like airs that breathe from ParadiseUpon a world of crime.The [...]

The Evening Star
Lo! in the painted oriel of the West,Whose panes the sunken sun incarnadines,Like a fair lady at her casement, shinesThe evening star, the star of love and rest!And then anon she doth herself divestOf all her radiant garments, and reclinesBehind the sombre screen of yonder pines,With slumber and soft dreams of love oppressed.O my beloved, my sweet [...]
Flowers
Spake full well, in language quaint and olden,One who dwelleth by the castled Rhine,When he called the flowers, so blue and golden,Stars, that in earth's firmament do shine.Stars they are, wherein we read our history,As astrologers and seers of eld;Yet not wrapped about with awful mystery,Like the burning stars, which they beheld.Wondrous truths, [...]
Eagerly Waiting
“God is eagerly waiting for the chance to answer your prayers and fulfill your dreams, just as he always has. But he can't if you don't pray, and he can't if you don't dream. In short, he can't if you don't believe.” -Jeffrey R. HollandE [...]
The Spirit of Poetry
There is a quiet spirit in these woods,That dwells where'er the gentle south-wind blows;Where, underneath the white-thorn, in the glade,The wild flowers bloom, or, kissing the soft air,The leaves above their sunny palms outspread.With what a tender and impassioned voiceIt fills the nice and delicate ear of thought,When the fast ushering star of morning [...]

The Future Is As Bright As Your Faith
