by Clarence Thomas Urmy (1858 - 1923)
A study in symbols
Language: English
From blue to red, from red to gold, from gold to gray - So turns the sky; so fades the light, so ends the day. From ease to strife, from strife to pain, from pain to peace - So life shall wane, So grief decline, so toil shall cease.
