A CONJECTURE, by CHARLES FRANCIS RICHARDSON Poet's Biography First Line: I wonder, dear, if you had been Last Line: Seen love make bright our yearning faces. | |||
I WONDER, dear, if you had been The maiden queen's pet maid of honor, A flower of that fair time wherein A court of roses smiled upon her, And I, erewhile, by Trojan wall Had fiercely fought for Grecian glory, Beheld the pride of Priam fall, And home in Athens told the story, Whether we, wandering in the glow Of the Hereafter's radiant spaces, Would there have mutely met, and so Seen love make bright our yearning faces. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LOVE by CHARLES FRANCIS RICHARDSON PRAYER by CHARLES FRANCIS RICHARDSON THE PERFECT LIFE by CHARLES FRANCIS RICHARDSON THE FABRIC OF LIFE by KAY RYAN THE DARKEST HOUR; OXFORD, 1917 by GEORGE SANTAYANA DEDICATIONS AND INSCRIPTIONS: 6.
