LIFE'S richest cup is Love's to fill Who drinks, if deep the draught shall be, Knows all the rapture of the hill Blent with the heart-break of the sea. O tired wings that trail the ground! O sudden flight to worlds above! O thorns among the roses bound About the brows of those who love! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ALL LIFE IN A LIFE by EDGAR LEE MASTERS FOUR POEMS ABOUT JAMAICA: 3.
