QUIETNESS by ANNE MILLAY BREMER

First Line: IN CITY CROWDS, IN WHIRLS OF SOUND AND
Last Line: MY SOUL AND I.
Subject(s): QUIET LIFE;

IN city crowds, in whirls of sound and motion,
In remote lands, under far sky,
Though years together, we have been strangers,
My soul and I.

Aged walls of apathy close in upon us,
The pleasant social smile has ceased to satisfy;
We are alone together, ... no longer strangers,
My soul and I.
