CONTENTMENT, by AL-TUTILI First Line: Leave wealth where wealth is found Last Line: Until you bare its blade. | |||
Leave wealth where wealth is found, To folk who boast it's theirs: It is the battleground Of all superfluous cares. In avarice and greed No longer be arrayed: The sword cuts not, indeed, Until you bare its blade. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LEAVES OF A MAGAZINE by MARIANNE MOORE BIRCH STREAM by ANNA BOYNTON AVERILL LOVE AND A QUESTION by ROBERT FROST THE HOLLY TREE by ROBERT SOUTHEY TWO WOMEN by NATHANIEL PARKER WILLIS FRATERNITY by ANNE REEVE ALDRICH TITA'S TEARS; A FANTASY by THOMAS BAILEY ALDRICH |
