A poem by Robert Louis Stevenson

Since years ago for evermore

________________________________________________
Title:     Since years ago for evermore
Author: Robert Louis Stevenson [More Titles by Stevenson]

SINCE years ago for evermore
My cedar ship I drew to shore;
And to the road and riverbed
And the green, nodding reeds, I said
Mine ignorant and last farewell:
Now with content at home I dwell,
And now divide my sluggish life
Betwixt my verses and my wife:
In vain; for when the lamp is lit
And by the laughing fire I sit,
Still with the tattered atlas spread
Interminable roads I tread.






-THE END-
Robert Louis Stevenson's poem: Since years ago for evermore
