All My Pages*

All My Pages

 

e&f

 

When all my lines are left to fade,

And my last page is turned,

 

I think that I shall see them home,

For there, they are affirmed

 

By that great heart

That loves the lines

And would in love

 

Reclaim,

 

As only love can love a line

On this material plane

 

But as the heart, itself must fade

Into God’s great unknown,

 

Let all my pages turn for Him,

For them, I do not own.
