Alice Corbin Henderson (Элис Корбин Хендерсон)


O World


O world that changes under my hand,
O brown world, bitter and bright,
And full of hidden recesses
Of love and light

O world, what use would there be to me
Of power beyond power
To change, or establish new balance,
To build, or deflower?

O world, what use would there be?
Had I the Creator's fire,
I could not build you nearer
To my heart's desire!



Alice Corbin Henderson's other poems:
  1. From the Stone Age
  2. The Great Air Birds Go Swiftly by
  3. Two Voices
  4. Humoresque
  5. One City Only
