by Cristel Hastings
As well recount stars on a still summer night--
Or the leaves on the poplars, or birds in their flight--
As well count the raindrops, or measure the sands
On every white beach of far, foreign lands--
As well name the waves of the world's seven seas,
For each act Lincoln was woven like these
Into one golden fabric of durable strength--
Each act was a poem, and life-long in length.
