Challenger

 

Challenger

Where does he go,
       The daring one?
He follows the road
       That leads to the sun. 

Is the going rough
       The highway wide?
The road is long--
       But so is his stride!

And does he guess
       What lies ahead?
He only knows
       That he is led . . .

Drawn by a will
       Greater than his
To look for the sun
       And a Power that is.

--Clare Harner.

From Cycle Vol. 7 No. 2 (June 1941) page 14. Devoted to shorter poetry and reviews, Cycle magazine was then published in Houston, Texas and edited by Lily Lawrence Bow (1870-1943).

Dianne Scott tells the story of How Bow Channel Got Its Name.
