Poem by Vachel Lindsay

* * *

Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Sat gossiping with Robert.
(She was really a raving beauty in her day.
With Mary Pickford curls in clouds and whirls.)
She was trying to think of something nice to say,
So she pointed to a page by her fellow star and sage,
And said: ”I wish that I could write that way!”

1. Sweet Briars of the Stairways
2. St. Francis of Assisi
3. What the Moon Saw
4. Written for a Musician
5. The Bankrupt Peace-Maker
