DO I believe? O lovely rose, Outside the garden-close, Unplanted, wild and free! How could I doubt His skill, Whose love created thee? The fields are red with clover, And daisies star the lea, But not in all the meadow Is flower so dear to me. 'T is in thy face forever, His heavenly face I see Who made the garden roses, And left my wild rose free. Do I believe? O fairest all prairie-flowers. As winds believe in midnight, As stars believe in midnight, So I believe in thee! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SPOON RIVER ANTHOLOGY: JONAS KEENE by EDGAR LEE MASTERS ANOTHER DARK LADY by EDWIN ARLINGTON ROBINSON NEW YEAR'S DAWN - BROADWAY by SARA TEASDALE THE IYYOB TRANSLATION FROM 'A-15' by LOUIS ZUKOFSKY THE FLAG GOES BY by HENRY HOLCOMB BENNETT SONNET TO GEORGE SAND: 1.
