   I like this one!

GOD'S GIFT by Alfred Noyes
There's but one gift that all our dead desire,
one gift that men can give and that's a dream,
Unless we, too,can burn with the same fire;


Die to the little hatreds; die to greed;
Die to the old ignoble selves we knew;
Die to the base contempts of sect and creed,
And rise again, like these, with souls as true.


Nay (since these died before their tasks were finished);
Attempt new heights, being even their dreams to birth;
Build us that better world,O,not diminished
By one true splendor that they planned on earth,
And that's not done by sword, or tongue, or pen,
There's but one way; God made us better men.



This is one of my favorite poems. I just thought of sharing this to you. I hope you like this one too. :)
