RED TREASURE, by CAROLYN AUSTIN First Line: If blessings could be bought with gold Last Line: I'd count each bleeding jewel blessed. | |||
If blessings could be bought with gold, And I in gems might coin my blood, For you I'd purchase every bliss, Right gladly would I pour its flood. Like dross I'd fling the rubies free, To you alone be it confessed; If this could win your heart for me, I'd count each bleeding jewel blessed. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...BEN KARSHOOK'S WISDOM by ROBERT BROWNING EPITAPH ON THE LADY MARY VILLIERS [OR VILLERS] (2) by THOMAS CAREW YOUTH AND AGE by SAMUEL TAYLOR COLERIDGE CINQUAIN: MOON-SHADOWS by ADELAIDE CRAPSEY THE SERGEANT'S WEDDIN' by RUDYARD KIPLING THE LAMENTATION OF THE OLD PENSIONER (2) by WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS |
