Excerpt from From the Cup of Silence: And Other Poems The thoughts that dissolved like vapour Take form and shining hue, The nameless joy that thrilled me No more is strange and new; I come to my own possession, The world's shrill doubts are past, For the dream was truth foreboded, And I know my own at last.
