I have a proud flag flying, Though none may see, A silver, gleaming pennon Of charity. There is no gain in hating, When love is strong; Nor yet no loss in loving, Though grief be long. My hope is to acknowledge You another's now; My pride is in forgiving A broken vow. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ROCK AND HAWK by ROBINSON JEFFERS GODOLPHIN HORNE, WHO WAS CURSED WITH THE SIN OF PRIDE, AND BECAME A BOOT-BLACK by HILAIRE BELLOC PRIDE by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON THE THIN EDGE OF YOUR PRIDE: 1 by KENNETH REXROTH PRIMER LESSON by CARL SANDBURG HAEC FABULA DOCET by ROBERT FROST VICTIM OF HIMSELF by MARVIN BELL MUTABILITY by EVELYN HAZLETT HUNT |
