A poem by Sara Teasdale

Understanding

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

I understood the rest too well,
And all their thoughts have come to be
Clear as grey sea-weed in the swell
Of a sunny shallow sea.

But you I never understood,
Your spirit's secret hides like gold
Sunk in a Spanish galleon
Ages ago in waters cold.






[The end]
Sara Teasdale's poem: Understanding
