i have a friend who keeps for morrows

i have a friend who keeps for morrows

&

i have a friend deeply meditative

blessed with thoughtful writing-

his devotion to God so deep

that he talks in undertones

not to disturb Him even--

but one problem ever with him

he scarcely writes keeping it for morrows-

believes he would have verve and resolve

and my pleadings to the contrary shake him not ;

he keeps now his pen at a respectable distance;

he is at peace as his wont but i am at wits' end

writing my wasted efforts on him

and staring at day draining its seconds !
