A Song Of Dependence

Title:     A Song Of Dependence
Author: Charles G. D. Roberts [More Titles by Roberts]

Love, what were fame,
And thou not in it,
That I should hold it worth
Much toil to win it?

What were success
Didst thou not share it?
As Spring can spare the snows
I well could spare it!

Love, what were love
But of thy giving
That it should much prevail
To sweeten living?

Nay, what were life,
Save thou inspire it,
That I should bid my soul
Greatly desire it?

[The end]
Charles G. D. Roberts's poem: Song Of Dependence
