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...THE SECRET by KATHERINE MANSFIELD THE DESERTED GARDEN by ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING THE WOODLARK by GERARD MANLEY HOPKINS A CELEBRATION OF CHARIS: 4.
