E SEMPRE BENE, by ANNA BUNSTON DE BARY First Line: But shall we not grow tired of joy Last Line: Shall be astonished at each kiss. Subject(s): Kisses; Love; Memory | |||
BUT shall we not grow tired of joy When bitter things are passed away? And will not love and beauty cloy If unrelieved day after day? Fear not! The memory of tears Shall lend a fresh delight to bliss, And lips, once wrung, through all the years Shall be astonished at each kiss. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...MEMORY AS A HEARING AID by TONY HOAGLAND THE SAME QUESTION by JOHN HOLLANDER FORGET HOW TO REMEMBER HOW TO FORGET by JOHN HOLLANDER ON THAT SIDE by LAWRENCE JOSEPH MEMORY OF A PORCH by DONALD JUSTICE BEYOND THE HUNTING WOODS by DONALD JUSTICE A CHILD'S THOUGHTS by ANNA BUNSTON DE BARY |
