Lyrics of Life by Douglas Malloch
The poem portrays a man who doubts miracles and religion yet births seeds of his own belief. He treats life as luck, starts tasks with hope, plans, and waits for spring’s renewal, ending with faith found in rest upon the sod and awakening at dawn.
Under the Snows A Poem Of Hope And Renewal
A reflective verse imagines seeds and blossoms hidden beneath snow and bare grass awaiting spring. It speaks of forthcoming joys and resilient hearts, with lines about buds, flowers, smiles, songs, and a rose reborn after loss, celebrating renewal.
The Man Who Beats You
A poem-like moral urging self-morcey and effort. It stresses that victory comes from beating one’s own best, not from rivalling others. It champions faithfulness, fitness, and steady pace to finish with personal best. The speaker exhorts a son to run true to himself from start to finish.
