Question

unseen poem A Ballad of Heaven​

Answer 1

Answer:

A Ballad of Heaven :

He wrought at one great work for years ;

The world passed by with lofty look;

Sometimes his eyes were dashed with tears ;

Sometimes his lips with laughter shook.

His wife and child went clothed in rags,

And in a windy garret starved ;

He trod his measure on the flags,

And high on heaven his music carved.

Wistful he grew but never feared ;

For always on the midnight skies

His rich orchestral score appeared

In stars and zones and galaxies.

He thought to copy down his score ;

The moonlight was his lamp; he said,

‘Listen my love,’ but on the floor

His wife and child were lying dead.
