Abraham Walks In Wonder

Homage to Lord Byron.

He...walks in wonder all the night
of beclouded starry skies;
and all that's there is dark, and bright
within his dark eyes...non denies
they sparkle within the stars light,
that e'en Heaven could not deny.

One ray more; I must confess
would grace the gloomiest day's race
that impaired the Heaven's blest,
or lightened his deserved place--
where thoughts kindly, how i wished
for pure and dear his dwelling place.

Peace I'd wish that face and brow,
so soft, and kind, and though spent,
I would've lent...to him a smile,
and a mind of peace well known;
peace with life left here below,
and a heart where love is innocent.
