The Choice By Dorothy Parker
He'd have given me rolling lands,
Houses of marble, and billowing farms,
Pearls,to trickle between my hands,
Smoldering rubies to circle my arms,
You-You'd only a lilting song,
Only a melody so happy and high,
You were sudden swift and strong,
Never a thought for another had I.
He'd have given me laces rare,
Dresses that glimered with frosty sheen,
Shining ribbons to wrap my hair,
Horses to draw me as fine as a queen,
You-you'd only to whistle low,
Gaily I followed wherever you led,
I took you,and I let him go,
Somebody ought to examine my head.
This is one of my favorite poems in the world! Dorothy Parker is a fantastic poet!
Hope you enjoy the rest of the site!
