A SONG WITH A DISCORD, by ARTHUR WILLIS COLTON First Line: Though winter come with dripping skies Last Line: For anything they'll buy. | |||
THOUGH Winter come with dripping skies, And laden winds and strong, Yet I'll read summer in her eyes Whose voice is summer's song. Who grieves because the world is old, Or cares how long it last, If no gray threads are in our gold, The shade our marbles cast, How, creeping near, we may not see? Time's heirs are Love and I, And spend our minted days -- Ah, me! For anything they'll buy. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...HARPS HUNG UP IN BABYLON by ARTHUR WILLIS COLTON TO FAUSTINE by ARTHUR WILLIS COLTON CHAMBER MUSIC: 31 by JAMES JOYCE A MOMENT by MARY ELIZABETH COLERIDGE PARTED FRIENDS by JAMES MONTGOMERY CORRYMEELA by NESTA HIGGINSON SKRINE ON THE DEITY by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD |
