Undue Significance A Starving Man Attaches

439

Undue Significance a starving man attaches
To Food—
Far off—He sighs—and therefore—Hopeless—
And therefore—Good—

Partaken—it relieves—indeed—
But proves us
That Spices fly
In the Receipt—It was the Distance—
Was Savory—

  Unfulfilled To Observation ᐈ
  If I Could Bribe Them By A Rose ᐈ
  Within My Garden, Rides A Bird ᐈ
  Love Reckons By Itself—alone ᐈ
  Had I Presumed To Hope ᐈ
