Life has loveliness to sell,
All beautiful and splendid things,
Blue waves whitened
on a clill,
Soaring fire that sways and sings,
And children's face looking up,
Holding wonder like a cup.
Life has loveliness to sell,
Music like a curve of gold,
Scent of pine trees in the rain,
Eyes that love
you, arms that hold,
And your spirit's still delight
Holy thoughts that star the night.
Spend all you have for loveliness,
Buy it and never count the cost,
For one white singing hour of peace
Count many a year of strife well lost.
And for a breath of ecstasy
Give all you have been or could be.
(Sara Téasdale)
