WHERE WE DIFFER, by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES Poet Analysis First Line: To think my thoughts all hers Last Line: Some ribbon, scarf, or stone. Alternate Author Name(s): Davies, W. H. | ||||||||
To think my thoughts all hers, Not one of hers is mine; She laughs -- while I must sigh; She sings -- while I must whine. She eats -- while I must fast; She reads -- while I am blind; She sleeps -- while I must wake; Free -- I no freedom find. To think the world for me Contains but her alone, And that her eyes prefer Some ribbon, scarf, or stone. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A CHILD'S PET by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES A MOTHER TO HER SICK CHILD by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES A STRANGE MEETING by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES A THOUGHT by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES ADVICE by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES APRIL'S LAMBS by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES BIRD AND BROOK by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES COWSLIPS AND LARKS by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES DAYS TOO SHORT by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES EARLY MORN by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES |
