A Poet to His Poems

Elizabeth Gibson Cheyne

YOU are born; you are no more mine:

I have let you go forever.

Demoniac or divine,

You shall sail by sea and river;

You shall walk by road and track;

You shall fly through wind and weather;

But nevermore come back,

That our hearts may laugh together.
