LOVE hath querulous grown and sad -- We should have parted yesterday; A wistful lass and a tender lad -- Pity it was we chose to stay. Over-long was the joy we had -- Why we wearied what man may say? Love hath querulous grown and sad -- We should have parted yesterday. O, to have said when hearts were glad, "Kiss me and go," as lovers may. Now we sneer that the dream was mad, Yawn and wonder and turn away. Love hath querulous grown and sad -- We should have parted yesterday. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE KING OF SPAIN by MAXWELL BODENHEIM THE TEST by RALPH WALDO EMERSON THE VANISHING RED by ROBERT FROST THREE BLIND MICE by MOTHER GOOSE REMEMBER by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI SONNETS FOR PICTURES: A VENETIAN PASTORAL (BY GIOGIONE) by DANTE GABRIEL ROSSETTI |
