A verse from fellowship on Sunday

We welcomed our local Baha'i organization to our fellowship on Sunday, and they shared many fine ideas and words with our congregation.

The short verse that keeps sticking in my head is this:

He drew a circle that shut me out
Heretic, rebel, a thing to flout
But love and I had the wit to win;
We drew a circle that took him in."
by
-- Edwin Markham

It seems like this could be a good one for memorizing, yes?

Does anybody reading this have any short little verses they love to share?
