A REPLY, by SARA TEASDALE Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Four people knew the very me Last Line: On memories I would not lose. Alternate Author Name(s): Filsinger, Ernest B., Mrs. | |||
Four people knew the very me, Four is enough, so let it be; For the rest I make no chart, There are no highroads to my heart; The gates are locked, they will not stir For any ardent traveller. I have not been misunderstood, And on the whole, I think life good -- So waste no sympathy on me Or any well-meant gallantry; I have enough to do to muse On memories I would not lose. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...IT WILL NOT CHANGE NOW by SARA TEASDALE LIKE BARLEY BENDING by SARA TEASDALE WHEN I AM NOT WITH YOU by SARA TEASDALE I HAVE SEEN THE SPRING' by SARA TEASDALE A LITTLE WHILE by SARA TEASDALE A MINUET OF MOZART'S by SARA TEASDALE |
