“This
is my wish for you …that the spirit of beauty may continually hover about you
and fold you close within the tendernesses of her wings… that each beautiful
and gracious thing in life may be unto you as a symbol of good for your soul’s
delight.
That sun-glories, and star-glories,
Leaf-glories and bark-glories,
Flower-glories / And glories that lurk in the grasses of the field…
Glories of mountains, and oceans,
Of little streams of running waters,
Glories of song, of poesy / Of all the arts / May be to you as sweet abiding influences that will
illumine your life and make you glad / That your soul may be filled to overflowing with the
mystical wine of beauty and love / That happiness may put her arms around you, And wisdom make
your soul serene.
This is my wish for you.”
