Love understands the mystery, whereof We can but spell a surface history: Love knows, remembers: let us trust in Love: Love understands the mystery. Love weighs the event, the long pre-history, Measures the depth beneath, the height above, The mystery, with the ante-mystery. To love and to be grieved befits a dove Silently telling her bead-history: Trust all to Love, be patient and approve: Love understands the mystery. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...MOUNTAIN FARM by MALCOLM COWLEY CONSECRATED GROUND; READ AT THE NEW YORK CITY HALL by EDWIN MARKHAM AT THE WEDDING MARCH by GERARD MANLEY HOPKINS GENTLEMEN-RANKERS by RUDYARD KIPLING A BED OF FORGET-ME-NOTS by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI |
