Wherever you may be in all the world This winter night of softly falling snow, So like the night we went divided ways, I send this word to you and think you know. Whatever life and years have done to you, Whatever life and years have done to me, Though other greater loves have come to us, We can never be sundered utterly. There was too much of beauty that we knew Together and there was enough of pain; Two lives that have been bound by these, my dear, Are never wholly separate lives again. There was too much we gave each other once, Beyond our love itself, that stayed to bless The years that were to be. Some bond endures When two have shared so much of loveliness. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LET ME NOT HATE by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON CONSECRATED GROUND; READ AT THE NEW YORK CITY HALL by EDWIN MARKHAM LINCOLN TRIUMPHANT by EDWIN MARKHAM SPOON RIVER ANTHOLOGY: EDITH CONANT by EDGAR LEE MASTERS |
