Ella Wheeler Wilcox (Элла Уилкокс) I, Too I saw fond lovers in that glow That oft-times fades away too soon: I saw and said, ’Their joy I know- I, too, have had my honeymoon.’ A young expectant mother’s gaze Held earth and heaven within its scope: My thoughts went back to holy days- I said, ’I, too, have known that hope.’ I saw a stricken mother swayed By sorrow’s storm, like wind-blown grass: I said, ’I, too, dismayed Have seen the little white hearse pass.’ I saw a matron rich with years Walk radiantly beside her mate: I blessed them, and said through my tears, ’I, too, have known that high estate.’ I saw a woman swathed in black So blind with grief she could not see: I said, ’Not far need I look back- I, too, have known Gethsemane.’ I saw a face so full of light, It seemed with all God’s truths to shine: I said, ’I, too, have found my sight, I, too, have touched the Fact Divine.’ Ella Wheeler Wilcox's other poems: Распечатать (Print) Количество обращений к стихотворению: 1299 |
