Poems by Women

SONG

How do I love you?
I do not know.
Only because of you
Gladly I go.

Only because of you
Labor is sweet,
And all the song of you
Sings in my feet.

Only the thought of you
Trembles and lies
Just where the world begins -
Under my eyes.

Irene Rutherford McLeod

 

From: Stevenson, Burton Egbert.
