Poignant poem that touches the core of your heart......top stars
Words of wisdom. Who will ever bother, in this vast universe, if a life is gone. Neither a bird or a tree will notice it.
Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree, If mankind perished utterly; And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn Would scarcely know that we were gone.
I am very hapy to know that this poem is chosen as The Classic Poem Of The Day, Sara is very talented poetess. She deserves this posthume honour. Congratulations to her closest family
This belongs to the other part: and suffered from many pains and a chronic pneumonia
No one would mind, neither bird nor tree, If mankind were to perish completely, this poem is written, with the words in it, since Sarah never had good health
Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree, If mankind perished utterly; And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn Would scarcely know that we were gone. Great poem. tony
This poem should be up there with the great ones this is underrated.
" ...And frogs in the pools singing at night, And wild plum trees in tremulous white; Robins will wear their feathery fire, Whistling their whims on a low fence-wire; ..." what a resonance...! it emits a fine flavour.. Loved it... Thanks
The rain of springtime will know itself as the beauty of the earth and will come to wet as fresh greenery field/// beautiful poem penned
