WHO BEARS IN MIND, by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES Poet Analysis First Line: Who bears in mind misfortunes gone Last Line: With temper calm and sweet. Alternate Author Name(s): Davies, W. H. | ||||||||
Who bears in mind misfortunes gone, Must live in fear of more; The happy man, whose heart is light, Gives no such shadow power; He bears in mind no haunting past To start his week on Monday; No graves are written on his mind, To visit on a Sunday; He lives his life by days, not years, Each day's a life complete; Which every morning finds renewed, With temper calm and sweet. | 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 |
