I understood the rest too well, <br />And all their thoughts have come to be <br />Clear as grey sea-weed in the swell <br />Of a sunny shallow sea. <br /> <br />But you I never understood, <br />Your spirit's secret hides like gold <br />Sunk in a Spanish galleon <br />Ages ago in waters cold. <br /> <br /> <br />Submitted by Venus<br /><br />Sara Teasdale<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/understanding-2/
