A poem by Sara Teasdale

Compensation

________________________________________________
Title:     Compensation
Author: Sara Teasdale [More Titles by Teasdale]

I should be glad of loneliness
And hours that go on broken wings,
A thirsty body, a tired heart
And the unchanging ache of things,
If I could make a single song
As lovely and as full of light,
As hushed and brief as a falling star
On a winter night.







[The end]
Sara Teasdale's poem: Compensation
