A poem by Laurence Alma-Tadema

The Clouded Soul

________________________________________________
Title:     The Clouded Soul
Author: Laurence Alma-Tadema [More Titles by Alma-Tadema]

O what have you done with your heart, daughter,
And what have you done to your soul, my dear?
Your heart was like a lily in June,
And your soul as a crystal clear....

O, I've thrown my heart in a well, mother,
For the lily was sick, and needed rain:
O, I've wept a cloud round my soul, mother,
And we never shall see it again....






[The end]
Laurence Alma-Tadema's poem: Clouded Soul
