Phyllis Wallin Poems

You were the high and lofty One
Of eternity's habitation.
Your were the Word with an infinite plan
That brought forth all creation.
...

If a sparrow were to carry the earth away
One grain of sand--each flight--
To a place beyond all worlds unknown,
Far away from pollution, or blight,
...

The sands of time have consumed me.
Many years have bent me low.
My opponent has been Adversity,
but has been both friend and foe.
...
