Ralph Waldo Emerson 1803-1882 ~ Stevie Wonder 1950- ...Past-time Paradise

The sun set; but not his hope
Stars rose; his faith was earlier up
Fixed on the enormous galaxy
Deeper and older seemed his eye
And matched his sufferance sublime
The taciturnity of time.
He spoke and words more soft than rain
Brought the Age of Gold again.
