An Old Story
Hello everyone, Praise the Lord! I just recently bought an old book of poetry, and I noticed a nice little poem of friendship, and lost opportunities. I wanted to share it with you. A Book of Treasured Poems, compiled and edited by William R. Bowlin. Published by Laidlaw Brothers, in 1923. AN OLD STORY Strange that I did not know him then, That friend of mine. I did not even show him then One friendly sign. But cursed him for the ways he had To make me see My envy of the praise he had For praising me. I would have rid the earth of him Once, in my pride!... I never knew the worth of him Until he died. Written by the American poet, Edwin Arlington Robinson. 1869-1935. My website My Biblical Hermeneutics blog Apostolic Theological Seminary William J. Roop
