A poem by Sara Teasdale

"I Have Loved Hours At Sea"

________________________________________________
Title:     "I Have Loved Hours At Sea"
Author: Sara Teasdale [More Titles by Teasdale]

I have loved hours at sea, gray cities,
The fragile secret of a flower,
Music, the making of a poem
That gave me heaven for an hour;

First stars above a snowy hill,
Voices of people kindly and wise,
And the great look of love, long hidden,
Found at last in meeting eyes.

I have loved much and been loved deeply--
Oh when my spirit's fire burns low,
Leave me the darkness and the stillness,
I shall be tired and glad to go.






[The end]
Sara Teasdale's poem: "I Have Loved Hours At Sea"
