by Nelle Richmond Eberhart (1871 - 1944)
All my heart is ashes
Language: English
All my heart is ashes, all the joy of love has died with the maple fires. Lo, the Gods heard not my pray'r! Lo, my vows may not be thine! In my sleeve my grief I hide. Ah, my tears, like the rain. Lo, my sleeve shall never dry!
