Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Satin Bow, and Other Poems A Satin Bow. A little shining satin bow From off my lady´s wedding-gown, Where, ´mid the folds like driven snow, You held some fractious ruffle down! I saw thee not that happy day, - I only saw a mist of white, My darling´s eyes, an orange spray, - And felt my heart throb with delight. But somehow, somewhere, thou didst hold High carnival for one glad hour. Now, limp and yellow, crushed and old, Bereft of all adorning power. Your mistress dropped you on the floor, And at my feet you idly lay: - "My love, some trash I´ll keep no more; I wore it on my wedding day." The little woman, you must know, Could make no use of such a thing. Most of her ribbons long ago Made baby´s sash or bonnet string. And so, she threw you quite away, Poor victim of her happy pride! She wore you on her wedding day, - A gleeful, girlish, bonny bride! They tell me she is faded, too, Is growing thin, and worn, and wan; But gazing in those eyes so true, I dare you prove it if you can.
