Edith Nesbit - MicrocosmEdith Nesbit - Microcosm
Work rating: Low


SHE and I--we kissed and vowed     That should be which could not be; Just as if mere vows endowed     Love with immortality! Ah, had vows but kept us true, As we thought them sure to do! She and I--such tiny parts     Of the Evolution-plan-- Yet can hold within our hearts     All the misery of man: All the ages did prepare, All we are and all we bear. She and I--mere counters, toys     Nature uses for her game-- Pity that we long for joys,     And feel sorrows all the same! Just as though our wills were free, As we dreamed them--I and she!
