THE REST FARM

THE REST FARM

THE REST FARM

Into this quiet placeOf peace we come.The War God hides his face,His mouth is dumb.All reckless, wild decreesHis lips repeat,Are hushed by a little breezeIn waving wheat.And, like the penance-peaceIn a heart forlorn,Thrills the word of the trees—The sigh of the corn.

Into this quiet place

Of peace we come.

The War God hides his face,

His mouth is dumb.

All reckless, wild decreesHis lips repeat,Are hushed by a little breezeIn waving wheat.

All reckless, wild decrees

His lips repeat,

Are hushed by a little breeze

In waving wheat.

And, like the penance-peaceIn a heart forlorn,Thrills the word of the trees—The sigh of the corn.

And, like the penance-peace

In a heart forlorn,

Thrills the word of the trees—

The sigh of the corn.
