IS THIS THE PRICE OF LOVE?, by JOSEPH SEAMON COTTER JR. First Line: Never again the sight of her? Last Line: Tell me, is this the price of love? Subject(s): Love | ||||||||
Never again the sight of her? Never her winsome smile Shall light the path of my journeying O'er many a weary mile? Never again shall her soft voice come To cheer me all the while? O Thou, who hearest from above, Tell me, is this the price of love? Never again the touch of her lips? Never her dark, brown eyes Shall shine on me with the dancing joy Of stars in the summer skies? Never again shall my song be aught Save minor chords of sighs? O Thou, who hearest from above, Tell me, is this the price of love? | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE INVENTION OF LOVE by MATTHEA HARVEY TWO VIEWS OF BUSON by ROBERT HASS A LOVE FOR FOUR VOICES: HOMAGE TO FRANZ JOSEPH HAYDN by ANTHONY HECHT AN OFFERING FOR PATRICIA by ANTHONY HECHT LATE AFTERNOON: THE ONSLAUGHT OF LOVE by ANTHONY HECHT A SWEETENING ALL AROUND ME AS IT FALLS by JANE HIRSHFIELD AND WHAT SHALL YOU SAY? by JOSEPH SEAMON COTTER JR. |
