That is a beautiful poem! My favorite line, perhaps, is “Far from the world’s gay busy throng.”

I’m going to echo Jeannie, and say… Lovely! I was especially struck with the line, “With gentle, yet prevailing force”, perhaps because I am too apt to argue and be ungentle with my brothers. Ouch. May I learn to act with more gentleness, through God’s grace!
