What reading level is The Flag of Peace And Other Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We are the children of earth and sky, As moonbeams that play with the tide; We are born of the earth to live and die, As the ships o'er the deep sea ride^ Our toys are Hope and Ambition and 1^'ame, They are painted in silver and gold; We think if we only can make a name, It is all that there is to hold.
There is something better than only play.
Than a dance by side of the sea, There are hearts that are waiting night and day, For a love from you and from me.
There are ghosts come in with the toy...s of life, So a smile or maybe a tear Are treasures to give in this world of strife — As we play with each passing year.
SOMETIMES 'Twas just a rose, so very white; She came and toucned it, 'neath the stars of night.
Then bending, kissed the rose, all dewy there; And with her hand she broke the stem with care, Tlie bloom she placed so close her neart Till of herself it seemed a living part.
The rose so fair, it clung as if in fear, Upon its leaf as glistening dew — a tear — Oh well! The rose, of course, it never knew; Sometimes I wish I were a rose, don 't you ?
