A poem by Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Life's Opera

________________________________________________
Title:     Life's Opera
Author: Ella Wheeler Wilcox [More Titles by Wilcox]

Like an opera-house is the world, I ween,
Where the passionate lover of music is seen
In the balcony near the roof:
While the very best seat in the first stage-box
Is filled by the person who laughs and talks
Through the harmony's warp and woof.







[The end]
Ella Wheeler Wilcox's poem: Life's Opera
