SILENCE, and whirling worlds afar <br />Through all encircling skies. <br />What floods come o'er the spirit's bar, <br />What wondrous thoughts arise. <br />The earth, a mantle falls away, <br />And, winged, we leave the sod; <br />Where shines in its eternal sway <br />The majesty of God.<br /><br />Paul Laurence Dunbar<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/night-156/
