A poem by Edna St Vincent Millay

To The Not Impossible Him

________________________________________________
Title:     To The Not Impossible Him
Author: Edna St Vincent Millay [More Titles by Millay]

How shall I know, unless I go
To Cairo and Cathay,
Whether or not this blessed spot
Is blest in every way?

Now it may be, the flower for me
Is this beneath my nose;
How shall I tell, unless I smell
The Carthaginian rose?

The fabric of my faithful love
No power shall dim or ravel
Whilst I stay here,--but oh, my dear,
If I should ever travel!





[The end]
