“Oh, there will pass with your great passing
Little of beauty not your own,—
Only the light from common water,
Only the grace from simple stone!”
I don’t love every poem in this set, but the highs are so high that it’s a must-read.

Pretty solid poetry collection, particularly the poems "April" and "The Poet and His Book."
Stranger, pause and look;
From the dust of ages
Lift this little book,
Turn the tattered pages,
Read me, do not let me die!
Search the fading letters, finding
Steadfast in the broken binding
All that once was I!

This has some real gems. I love returning to this collection occasionally, like checking in with an old friend.

I enjoyed her nature-based poems much, much more than the spiritual or socially-critical ones.
