WHERE LOVE IS, THERE COMES SORROW by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI

Poet Analysis

Last Line: Then such a long to-morrow
Subject(s): LOVE – NATURE OF; GRIEF;
Where love is, there comes sorrow
To-day or else to-morrow:
Endure the mood,
Love only means our good.

Where love is, there comes pleasure
With or withouten measure.
Early or late
Cheering the sorriest state.

Where love is, all perfection
Is stored for heart's delection;
For where love is
Dwells every sort of bliss.

Who would not choose a sorrow
Love's self will cheer to-morrow?
One day of sorrow,
Then such a long to-morrow!
