A poem by Amy Lowell

Obligation

________________________________________________
Title:     Obligation
Author: Amy Lowell [More Titles by Lowell]

Hold your apron wide
That I may pour my gifts into it,
So that scarcely shall your two arms hinder them
From falling to the ground.

I would pour them upon you
And cover you,
For greatly do I feel this need
Of giving you something,
Even these poor things.

Dearest of my Heart!






[The end]
Amy Lowell's poem: Obligation
