I stumbled upon this poem which was published in February of 1924 in Poetry magazine. One hundred years ago this poet valued beauty and how it gave us something valuable. 

I cannot find out any information on the poet himself. Only that this poem was published a few other places too. Seems it was well liked. Enjoy.

The Pensioners of Beauty

We are the pensioners of beauty; little care

Have we of the red-wheeled market and the fair --

The dust-stained and voice-thick air.

We are the pensioners of beauty--her voice low

And lovely calls us, her garments sweetly slow

Over the pale wide grasses go.

— Aeldryn Sadler
