THE CLAY
OF YOUTH
I took a piece of plastic clay
And gently fashioned it one day
And as my finger pressed it
Still it bent and yielded to my will.
I came again when days were past
The bit of clay was hard at last
Its early impress still it bore
But I could change the form no
more.
I took a piece of living clay
And gently form it day by day
And moulded with my power and art
A boy’s soft and yielding heart.
A boy’s soft and yielding heart.
I came again when years were gone
It was a man I looked upon
My early impress still it bore
And I could change him nevermore

Youth”?
