IN ME by SARA TEASDALE

Poet Analysis

First Line: IN ME THE QUIET OR THE STRIFE
Last Line: IN MY OWN HEAVEN THE FRAGRANT RAIN.

In me the quiet or the strife,
In me the dying or the life,
In me the lethargy or will,
In me the power to heal my ill,
And when my soul is parched with pain,
In my own heaven the fragrant rain.
