Celebrating today's Birthday Anniversary

Thank You, Colonel Flagg, for introducing Sarah to we poets of the Lair.

Sara Teasdale
(1884-1933)

"Did You Never Know?"
by Sara Teasdale

Did you never know, long ago, how much you loved me --
That your love would never lessen and never go?
You were young then, proud and fresh-hearted,
You were too young to know.

Fate is a wind, and red leaves fly before it
Far apart, far away in the gusty time of year --
Seldom we meet now, but when I hear you speaking,
I know your secret, my dear, my dear.

"It Will Not Change"
by Sara Teasdale

It will not change now
After so many years;
Life has not broken it
With parting or tears;
Death will not alter it,
It will live on
In all my songs for you
When I am gone.
