"I Prayed So Eagerly"

________________________________________________
Title:     "I Prayed So Eagerly"
Author: Dora Sigerson Shorter [More Titles by Shorter]

I prayed so eagerly,
"Turn and see
How bitter I have striven--
A word and all forgiven."
I prayed so eagerly.

I prayed so eagerly--
Not to be,
You turned and passed. Good-bye!
Fates smile for me, dreamed I--
Yet I prayed eagerly.





[The end]
Dora Sigerson Shorter's poem: "I Prayed So Eagerly"
