KINDRED by GLADYS CROMWELL

First Line: WHAT INEQUALITY
Last Line: A GARLAND FOR MY SPIRIT WEAVES.
Subject(s): DEPRESSION, MENTAL; LOVE; MENTALLY DEPRESSED; MENTAL DISTRESS;

WHAT inequality!
The apple trees and stones
Are kindred. Love, the stormy aeons
Have made my spirit bleak and grey.

Like sun-emblazoned leaves
Or blossoms in the spring,
Your loveliness, o'ershadowing,
A garland for my spirit weaves.
