A Pageant And Other Poems Lyrics by Christina Rossetti

The Poems of Christina G. Rossetti

0

Sonnets are full of love, and this my tome
        Has many sonnets: so here now shall be
        One sonnet more, a love sonnet, from me
To her whose heart is my heart's quiet home,
        To my first Love, my Mother, on whose knee
I learnt love-lore that is not troublesome;
        Whose service is my special dignity,
And she my loadstar while I go and come.
And so because you love me, and because
        I love you, Mother, I have woven a wreath
                Of rhymes wherewith to crown your honored name:
                In you not fourscore years can dim the flame
Of love, whose blessed glow transcends the laws
        Of time and change and mortal life and death.
