July 6, 2023It Is Not a Word
It is not a word spoken,
Few words are said;
Nor even a look of the eyes
Nor a bend of the head,
But only a hush of the heart
That has too much to keep,
Only memories waking
That sleep so light a sleep.
Sara Teasdale
Sara Teasdale (1884-1933) was an American poet who is known for her works that explore themes of love, beauty, and the natural world. She won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1918 and her works continue to be celebrated for their lyrical beauty.
