Enough! we're tired, my heart and I. We sit beside the headstone thus, And wish that name were carved for us. The moss reprints more tenderly. The hard types of the mason's knife, As Heaven's sweet life renews earth's life. With which we're tired, my heart and I .... In this abundant earth no doubt. Is little room for things worn out: Disdain them, break them, throw them by! And if before the days grew rough. We once were loved, used, - well enough, I think, we've fared, my heart and I. Elizabeth Barrett Browning
I would build a cloudy HouseFor my thoughts to live in; When for earth too fancy-looseAnd too low for Heaven! Hush! I talk my dream aloud -I build it bright to see, -I build it on the moonlit cloud, To which I looked with thee. Elizabeth Barrett Browning
