Robinson Jeffers - JoyRobinson Jeffers - Joy
Work rating: Low


Though joy is better than sorrow joy is not great; Peace is great, strength is great. Not for joy the stars burn, not for joy the vulture Spreads her gray sails on the air Over the mountain; not for joy the worn mountain Stands, while years like water Trench his long sides. "I am neither mountain nor bird Nor star; and I seek joy." The weakness of your breed: yet at length quietness Will cover those wistful eyes.
