A ninth grade student turned in the following poem:
**********************************
Remember

So much of life we all pass by
With heedless ear and careless eye
bent with their cares they prod along
blind to the beauty, deaf to the song.

But moments there are when we pause to rest
and turn our eyes from the goal's far crest,
we become aware of the wayside flowers
and sense God's hand in this world of ours.
**************************************

Her teacher came to me and enlisted my help to find the real source as he
believes this student could not possibly have written this poem (based on
past performance.)

My older Grangers index did not list it, nor did any other index.
I've been through every poetry book I have.
Can anyone help?
One person suggested a greeting card or even "Ideals" but I'm stumped.
TIA
Jeanette Heath
