Robert Louis Stevenson - God Gave To Me A Child In Part

2014-11-07 12 Dailymotion

GOD gave to me a child in part, <br />Yet wholly gave the father's heart: <br />Child of my soul, O whither now, <br />Unborn, unmothered, goest thou? <br /> <br />You came, you went, and no man wist; <br />Hapless, my child, no breast you kist; <br />On no dear knees, a privileged babbler, clomb, <br />Nor knew the kindly feel of home. <br /> <br />My voice may reach you, O my dear- <br />A father's voice perhaps the child may hear; <br />And, pitying, you may turn your view <br />On that poor father whom you never knew. <br /> <br />Alas! alone he sits, who then, <br />Immortal among mortal men, <br />Sat hand in hand with love, and all day through <br />With your dear mother wondered over you.<br /><br />Robert Louis Stevenson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/god-gave-to-me-a-child-in-part/
