VAGRANT VERSE
INEVITABLE. (Written for the Southland Times,)' Within this hour we sow the seeds of future days, nor think that they will germinate, send their roots and branches in a thousand ways, new fruitage give unchoosing Fate to feed upon. I pause to marvel that we care so little what this fruit will be, and blindly seed unfurrowed fields while unaware if we the harvesting will see. I pause to marvel, bandaged still by ignorance, how to the present need I trust the future’s form; throw my careless fee to chance and seed this hour because I must —Shaun O’Sullivan, Invercargill, July. 14, 1933»
