Losses

by Carl Sandburg

Carl Sandburg

I HAVE love
And a child,
A banjo
And shadows.
(Losses of God,
All will go
And one day
We will hold
Only the shadows.)

Quotes of the Day

He who draws noble delights from sentiments of poetry is a true poet,
though he has never written a line in all his life.
