“And what is Life? — An hour-glass on the run”

"What is Life?"
Poems Chiefly from Manuscript

“This world has suns, but they are overcast;
This world has sweets, but they're of ling'ring bloom;
Life still expects, and empty falls at last;
Warm Hope on tiptoe drops into the tomb.”

"Hope"
Poems Chiefly from Manuscript
