Tubman High School - Maids and a Man Yearbook (Augusta, GA)

SONNET High up above me, deep blue, and clear, Expansive, infinite-where the eye of man Can but behold its surface, merely seen Its form-is a bowl, which seems to earth so near That one might stretch his hand and touch it-where Each day the elements are mixed by a band Of whistling winds, by fogs, by showers, and By mist, by snow, by hail, by sunlight clear- Oh, Sky, Heaven lies within thy depths! And there that Presence who shapes my destiny. Just as the winds compound my days, my steps He guides. He sends me sorrow, ecstasy, Love, disaster, blessing. Whatever hap, He leads me surely to infinity! -MARY KATHERINE REISER, '37
