The Bard of the Rydal Mount and Tagore

We need Wordsworth To save our beautiful earth Who found God in Nature And worshipped the creature He grasped humanity as his own For which he was born. We need Tagore In today's moment of horror He taught how to conquer over fear Here and there we can hear The shrill cry of hungry vultures The blood-eater creatures. Tagore showed human love How to weave it like a dove He knitted the thread Of an extensive net For catching love and mankind All was entwined O, come to be united together We are like the flower Let's bloom in the field Like the green grass filled With morning dew to make us anew.
