TIME'S HAND IS KIND, by MARGARET E. BRUNER First Line: For those who place their blooms on new-made graves Last Line: And, in its stead, will come a strange new peace. Subject(s): Time | ||||||||
For those who place their blooms on new-made graves And feel that life holds nought but emptiness, Know that time's hand in kindness ever saves The heart from too much sorrow and distress. Yet all deep wounds heal slowly, it would seem, But gradually the yearning pain will cease. . . . Thus will your grief become a hallowed dream And, in its stead, will come a strange new peace. | Other Poems of Interest...CONSTANT CHANGE FIGURES by LYN HEJINIAN ELEVEN EYES: FINAL SECTION by LYN HEJINIAN THE FATALIST: COME OCTOBER by LYN HEJINIAN THE FATALIST: HOME by LYN HEJINIAN THE FATALIST: TIME IS FILLED by LYN HEJINIAN SLOWLY: I FREQUENTLY SLOWLY WISH by LYN HEJINIAN ALL THE DIFFICULT HOURS AND MINUTES by JANE HIRSHFIELD A DAY IS VAST by JANE HIRSHFIELD FROM THIS HEIGHT by TONY HOAGLAND |
