ChastenedBY KATE G. LAFFITTE
I knew no love but hers, nor cared to know,She grieved and did not hide from me her grief that this was so.I shut my heart with jealous care about her glowing face,Her voice, her eyes, her lips, her woman’s sweet and tender grace.I snatched her hands away when she caressed a wounded dove,I envied all she looked on, grudged each smile, and called it love.She died, I saw her lying there so still and cold and sweet.Her roses flung their fragrance unheeded at her feet;I laid my face against her own, her white soul spoke to mineAnd warm across my frozen heart a bright light seemed to shine.With aching arms I drew a suffering world into my lifeAnd, chastened, learned too late that I had never loved my wife.

Her voice, her eyes, her lips, her woman’s sweet and tender grace.
I snatched her hands away when she caressed a wounded dove,
I envied all she looked on, grudged each smile, and called it love.

Her roses flung their fragrance unheeded at her feet;

And warm across my frozen heart a bright light seemed to shine.
With aching arms I drew a suffering world into my life
And, chastened, learned too late that I had never loved my wife.
