Daphne

Author: Edna St Vincent Millay [More Titles by Millay]

Why do you follow me?--
Any moment I can be
Nothing but a laurel-tree.

Any moment of the chase
I can leave you in my place
A pink bough for your embrace.

Yet if over hill and hollow
Still it is your will to follow,
I am off;--to heel, Apollo!

[The end]
Edna St Vincent Millay's poem: Daphne
