Sara Teasdale: In the Metropolitan Museum

sarateasdale 03

Sara Teasdale

(1884 – 1933)

 

In the Metropolitan Museum

 

Within the tiny Pantheon

We stood together silently,

Leaving the restless crowd awhile

As ships find shelter from the sea.

 

The ancient centuries came back

To cover us a moment’s space,

And thro’ the dome the light was glad

Because it shone upon your face.

 

Ah, not from Rome but farther still,

Beyond sun-smitten Salamis,

The moment took us, till you stooped

To find the present with a kiss.
