TRIOLETS: 6 by SARA TEASDALE

Poet Analysis

First Line: I SANG OF ANSWERED PRAYER,
Last Line: There waits some lonelier goddess
Subject(s): PRAYER;
I sang of answered prayer,
And now before the goddess,
The maids lay flowers rare,
And she has ceased to care
For bay that I might bear.
To heal my heart's distress,
My feet must wander where
There waits some lonelier goddess.
