Put her away some place between two hills, <br />Away from the sea and the sun. <br />She has so much to think of–must she run <br />On your bright bosom always, Mother Earth? <br />Put her away, and let some other birth <br />Bring her back to the sound of the sea, and the sun. <br />After she ponders under silent hills, <br />Beneath your swarming bosom, Mother Earth, <br />She will have words for her beloved one.<br /><br />Genevieve Taggard<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/tired-girl-2/
