Classic and Contemporary Poetry


SYMBOL by DAVID MORTON

First Line: MY FAITH IS ALL A DOUBTFUL THING
Last Line: IN BLOSSOMS, EVERYWHERE.
Subject(s): JESUS CHRIST;

My faith is all a doubtful thing,
Wove on a doubtful loom, --
Until there comes, each showery spring,
A cherry-tree in bloom;
And Christ who died upon a tree
That death had stricken bare,
Comes beautifully back to me,
In blossoms, everywhere.
