The Dreams Of My Heart" Poem by Sara Teasdale

The Dreams Of My Heart"

Rating: 3.4


The dreams of my heart and my mind pass,
Nothing stays with me long,
But I have had from a child
The deep solace of song;

If that should ever leave me,
Let me find death and stay
With things whose tunes are played out and forgotten
Like the rain of yesterday.
