Classic and Contemporary Poetry


FORTHFARING by WINIFRED HOWELLS

First Line: I TRIPPED ALONG A NARROW WAY
Last Line: I HAVE BEGUN TO THINK.

I TRIPPED along a narrow way,
Plucking the same flowers, day by day;
The sun which round about me lay
Had never seemed to sink.

But now at once the path divides;
I see new flowers bloom on all sides;
I stop, while doubt the sun half hides:
I have begun to think.
