A poem by Sara Teasdale

Longing

________________________________________________
Title:     Longing
Author: Sara Teasdale [More Titles by Teasdale]

I AM not sorry for my soul
That it must go unsatisfied,
For it can live a thousand times,
Eternity is deep and wide.

I am not sorry for my soul,
But oh, my body that must go
Back to a little drift of dust
Without the joy it longed to know.






[The end]
Sara Teasdale's poem: Longing
