Anguish

by Adelaide Crapsey

Adelaide Crapsey

Keep thou
Thy tearless watch
All night but when the blue-dawn Breathes on the silver moon, then weep!
Then weep!




Quotes of the Day

Life is half spent before we know what it is.

• George Herbert



Poems of the Day
  • Ella Wheeler Wilcox
    High Noon.
    by Ella Wheeler Wilcox
    Time's finger on the dial of my life Points to high noon! and yet the half-spent day Leaves less than half remaining, for the dark, Bleak shadows of the grave engulf the end.
