The Unknowing

Title:     The Unknowing
Author: Theodosia Garrison [More Titles by Garrison]

They do not know the awful tears we shed,
The tender treasures that we keep and kiss;
They could not be so still--our quiet dead
In knowing this.

They do not know what time we turn to fill
Love's empty chalice with a cheaper bliss;
They could not be so still--so very still
In knowing this.

[The end]
Theodosia Garrison's poem: Unknowing
