Robert W Service - Forgotten MasterRobert W Service - Forgotten Master
Work rating: Low


As you gaze beyond the bay With such wanness in your eyes, You who have out-stayed your day, Seeing other stars arise, Slender though your lifehold be, Still you dream beside the sea. We, alas! may live too long, Know the best part of us die; Echo of your even-song Hushes down the darkling sky . . . But your greatness would be less If you cherished bitterness. I am sure you do not care Though the rabble turn thumbs down; Their neglect you well can bear, knowing you have won your crown, proudly given of your best . . . Masterlinck, leave God the rest.
