JUST TO BE NEEDED, by MARY EVERSLEY First Line: She always seems so tied' is what friends say Last Line: "than any freedom in this world could be." | |||
"She always seems so tied" is what friends say; She never has a chance to get away. Home, husband, children, duties great or small, Keep her forever at their beck and call. But she confides, with laughter in her eyes, She never yet felt fretted by these ties. "Just to be needed is more sweet," says she, "Than any freedom in this world could be." | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A WINTER NIGHT by WILLIAM BARNES MY LOVE'S GUARDIAN ANGEL by WILLIAM BARNES CHRISTMAS EVERYWHERE by PHILLIPS BROOKS SONG, FR.
