Classic and Contemporary Poetry

UNCONSCIOUS by GEORGE WILLIAM RUSSELL

First Line: THE WINDS, THE STARS, AND THE SKIES THOUGH
Last Line: NOR HEEDS THE FIRE IN HIS HEARTH AND HOME.
Subject(s): GOD; HUMAN BEHAVIOR; NATURE; NATURE - RELIGIOUS ASPECTS; CONDUCT OF LIFE; HUMAN NATURE;
THE winds, the stars, and the skies though wrought
By the heavenly King yet know it not;
And man who moves in the twilight dim
Feels not the love that encircles him,
Though in heart, on bosom, and eyelids press
Lips of an infinite tenderness,
He turns away through the dark to roam
Nor heeds the fire in his hearth and home.
