THERE are some pearls which lie beneath the sea— So deep, so deep, No diver's hand can reach, nor eye behold. The waters keep Their treasure safely hid and all untold. Through years and years, through storms that o'er it whirl, Fairer than other pearls, perhaps, this pearl. There are some thoughts which lie within the soul— So far, so far; So deep within the heart's most secret cell, Like some hid star, That but this heart its whispers sweet can tell. Safe hid away and treasured and unsought, Fairer than other thoughts, perhaps, this thought. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...STUDY FOR A GEOGRAPHICAL TRAIL; 4.
