A poem by Edna St Vincent Millay

Kin To Sorrow

________________________________________________
Title:     Kin To Sorrow
Author: Edna St Vincent Millay [More Titles by Millay]

Am I kin to Sorrow,
That so oft
Falls the knocker of my door--
Neither loud nor soft,
But as long accustomed,
Under Sorrow's hand?
Marigolds around the step
And rosemary stand,
And then comes Sorrow--
And what does Sorrow care
For the rosemary
Or the marigolds there?
Am I kin to Sorrow?
Are we kin?
That so oft upon my door--
*Oh, come in*!





[The end]
