Masters, Edgar Lee: Spoon River Anthology - Francis Turner

Portre of Masters, Edgar Lee

Spoon River Anthology - Francis Turner (English)

  I could not run or play

  In boyhood.

  In manhood I could only sip the cup,

  Not drink -

  For scarlet-fever left my heart diseased.

  Yet I lie here

  Soothed by a secret none but Mary knows:

  There is a garden of acacia,

  Catalpa trees, and arbors sweet with vines -

  There on that afternoon in June

  By Mary's side -

  Kissing her with my soul upon my lips

  It suddenly took flight.
