FOR YOU - TRULY by YVONNE FLORENCE

First Line: I DARE NOT WRITE TOO LIGHTLY
Last Line: TO TELL YOU WHAT YOU ARE!
Subject(s): BEAUTY; SEA; TREES; WRITING & WRITERS; OCEAN;

I dare not write too lightly
Of the beauty of a tree;
The quiet cool of evening,
Or the trembling of a star.

I would not write too bravely
Of the splendor of the sea
Any more than I would venture
To tell you what you are!
