I do hate the folk I love- <br />They hurt so. <br />Their least word and act may be <br />Source of woe. <br />'Won't you come to tea with me?' <br />'Not today' <br />I'm so tired, I've been to church <br />Such folk say. <br /> <br />All the dreary afternoon <br />I must clutch <br />At the strength to love like them <br />Not too much<br /><br />Lesbia Harford<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-folk-i-love/
