| Augustin S. Macdonald, comp. A Collection of Verse by California Poets. 1914. | | | | A Year from Now | | By Sarah Keppel Vickery |
| | | WILL I have other thoughts | |
| A year from now? | |
| Will this dear joy still wear its blossomed crown? | |
| And this still dearer sorrow, | |
| Will it then, as now | 5 |
| Lay hands of blest remembrance | |
| On my head? | |
| I gaze into the dimness— | |
| Does there grow, beyond my seeing, | |
| The fair light of stars? | 10 |
| I know not—but Thou knowest— | |
| Thou, to whom tomorrow is to-day— | |
| I rest in Thee. | |
| Deal gently with my years. | | | | |
