Answer 2

Air Castle

My life's tomorrow beckons me

From distant mountains, high and low,

My future seems a boundless sea,

Where moving passion come and go.

Deep in my heart ambitions dwells,

Hecheers me up the highland way, And guides me through the hills and dales

Wherein I pass the busy day.

I cannot write with Shakespeare's pen,

But I can love with Shakespear's heart:

I love his skills, his craft of men.

His mastery of poet's art.

I do not care for fame, has he.

Enthroned, was like unto a God;

The depths he reaches are dark, to me.

But I will grope the ways he trod.

I wear achievements coronet,

For blest are they who see things done!

And all my cares I soon forget

When I have wrought my work alone.

If I be met by adverse Fate,

And all my dreams be but in vain,

Then must I work the harder yet?

With resolve to try again.
