Sara Teasdale:<br /><br /><br />"I Am Not Yours"<br /><br /> I am not yours, not lost in you,<br /> Not lost, although I long to be<br /> Lost as a candle lit at noon,<br /> Lost as a snowflake in the sea.<br /><br /> You love me, and I find you still<br /> A spirit beautiful and bright,<br /> Yet I am I, who long to be<br /> Lost as a light is lost in light.<br /><br /> Oh plunge me deep in love -put out<br /> My senses, leave me deaf and blind<br /> Swept by the tempest of your love,<br /> A taper in a rushing wind.<br /><br /> Sara Teasdalequidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06954222271507913856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4356162479428337180.post-33529573862124814862010-03-06T20:02:47.118-06:002010-03-06T20:02:47.118-06:00Very nice poem..... and you KNOW how I feel about ...Very nice poem..... and you KNOW how I feel about Cardinals!<br /><br />Sunshine four days in a row here!!!
