A poem by Isabel Ecclestone Mackay

Indifference

________________________________________________
Title:     Indifference
Author: Isabel Ecclestone Mackay [More Titles by Mackay]

A BIRD, a wild-flower and a tree--
I care for them, not they for me.

I see all heaven in a pool--
But the frog there takes me for a fool.

To this dead thrush a tear I gave--
All Spring shall sing above my grave,

And naught I spend my heart upon
Know lack or loss that I am gone--

A bird, a wild-flower and a tree,
I cherish them; they suffer me!





[The end]
Isabel Ecclestone Mackay's poem: Indifference
