Edith Nesbit - A Choice

Edith Nesbit - A Choice

THE flood of utter change is loosed. A space br Is ours yet, for its coming to prepare. br Shall we build dams with cautious, clumsy care, br Or stand with idle hands and frightened face, br And so be whirled all broken from our place, br And perish with the dams we builded there? br Or shall we dig a broad, deep channel, where br Most fields may feel the flood's benign embrace? br br br Thus turned 'twill be a calm majestic flood br Of plenty, peace, and fertilising power, br Whose banks fresh flowers of love and joy shall deck.
