Poems by Edna St. Vincent Millay
Time Does Not Bring Relief
... And last year's leaves are smoke in every lane ...
Cherish You Then The Hope I Shall Forget
... put away For your so passing sake, this mouth of clay ...
We Talk Of Taxes, And I Call You Friend
... That flourish through neglect, and soon must send ...
Hearing Your Words, And Not A Word Among Them
... When inland woods were pushed by winds that flung them ...
Four Sonnets (1922)
... by and by I shall forget you, as I said, but now, ...
What lips my lips have kissed, and where, and why
... What lips my lips have kissed, and where, and why, ...
Time Does Not Bring Relief: You All Have Lied
... And entering with relief some quiet place  ...
from Figs and Thistles: First Fig
... But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends&mdash ...
I think I should have loved you presently
... And caught your hand against my cheek and breast ...
Mindful Of You The Sodden Earth
... And all the flowers that in the springtime grow, ...
Sonnet: VII: From Fatal Interview
... Whose voice alone, whose pitiful breath brought near, ...
Euclid Alone
... let geese Gabble and hiss, but heroes seek release ...
Not With Libations, But With Shouts And Laughter
... but I fear Though we should break our bodies in his flame, ...
Women Have Loved Before As I Love Now
... When treacherous queens, with death upon the tread, ...
Once More Into My Arid Days Like Dew
... Once more I clasp,and there is nothing there ...
