The Morning after Death
Is solemnest of industries
Enacted upon earth-
The Sweeping up the Heart
And putting Love away
We shall not want to use again
Until Eternity.
- Emily Dickinson

Sorrow has squeezed my heart dry of all emotion, Even the tears are gone from my eyes, I smile-I smile, but God, I have known sorrow. You have been kind, dear God, for I have known love- Not mere white, hot passion, but a love so possessing, Consuming, that no sacrifice was too great to keep it; A love that hid me from every hurt, taking me in its strong, tender arms Up to a land peopled with fairies, and carpeted with pale hyacinths. I willingly bear the the lonliness-the sorrow- Since I have known love. - Ruby Berkeley Goodwin God, I have known sorrow-
I have stood by helplessly,
as fate like a madly rushing, rising river,
Sullen and ruthless, swept from me everything worth
buying at life’s mart;
Baby eyes, slowly clouding with death,
have pleaded for life,
As I stood by anxious and sorrowing,
but oh! how helpless.
Sorrow has squeezed my heart dry of all emotion,
Even the tears are gone from my eyes,
I smile-I smile, but God, I have known sorrow.

You have been kind, dear God, for I have known love-
Not mere white, hot passion, but a love so possessing,
Consuming, that no sacrifice was too great to keep it;
A love that hid me from every hurt,
taking me in its strong, tender arms
Up to a land peopled with fairies,
and carpeted with pale hyacinths.
I willingly bear the the lonliness-the sorrow-
Since I have known love.
– Ruby Berkeley Goodwin
