Poems (White)/Audubon
AUDUBON
John James Audubon, you loved the birds; You their wonderful music heard; Your soul was stirred with their sweet song; You labored for them your life long. You did not live in vain: you spent Life revealing the message sent In throats of birds, that stir within Nearness to God, loathing for sin. For who can hear the wild bird's trill Without a thought of God's great will?
