Frederic Lawrence Knowles was an American poet whose works included On Life's Stairway and Love Triumphant.
"If Love were jester at the court of Death, And Death the king of all, still would I pray "For me the motley and the bauble, yea, Though all be vanity as the Preacher saith, The mirth of love be mine for one brief breath!"
"The Night walked down the sky With the moon in her hand."
"I find no foeman in the road but Fear — To doubt is failure, and to dare, success!"
