The Cedar Chest

Title:     The Cedar Chest
Author: Christopher Morley [More Titles by Morley]

Her mind is like her cedar chest
Wherein in quietness do rest
The wistful dreamings of her heart
In fragrant folds all laid apart.

There, put away in sprigs of rhyme
Until her life's full blossom-time,
Flutter (like tremulous little birds)
Her small and sweet maternal words.

[The end]
Christopher Morley's poem: Cedar Chest
