- The Secret Heart
Robert P.
- Tristram Coffin
Across the years he could recall
His father one way best of all.
- The man had struck a match to see
If his son slept peacefully.
- He wore, it seemed to his small son,
A bare heart on his hidden one,
A heart that gave out such a glow
No son awake could bear to know.
- But it shone long enough for one
To know that hands held up the sun.
