It is strange how often a heart must be broken before the years can make it wise.
More Quotes from Sara Teasdale:
Into my heart's treasury I slipped a coin That Time cannot take Nor a thief purloin O better than the minting Of a gold-crowned king Is the safe-kept memory Of a lovely thing.Sara Teasdale
Call him wise whose actions, words, and steps are all a clear because to a clear why.

Christmas Carol The kings they came from out the south, All dressed in ermine fine They bore Him gold and chrysoprase, And gifts of precious wine. The shepherds came from out the north, Their coats were brown and old They brought Him little new-born lambs They had not any gold. The wise men came from out the east, And they were wrapped in white The star that led them all the way Did glorify the night. The angels came from heaven high, And they were clad with wings And lo, they brought a joyful song The host of heaven sings. The kings they knocked upon the door, The wise men entered in, The shepherds followed after them To hear the song begin. The angels sang through all the night Until the rising sun, But little Jesus fell asleep Before the song was done.

Oh who can tell the range of joy or set the bounds of beauty?

Suicide note to her lover who left her. When I am dead, and over me bright April Shakes out her rain drenched hair, Tho you should lean above me broken hearted, I shall not care. For I shall have peace. As leafey trees are peaceful When rain bends down the bough. And I shall be more silent and cold hearted Than you are now.
Sara Teasdale
