Mr. Africa Poetry Lounge!

Golden Sorrow


The heart that's
Sealed with joy
Will melt in sorrow ere long;
The heart that beats with gladness
Must throb with affliction
And expel the commingling elements
Into the cup of golden sorrow.


We drink the bitter tonic
And live another life.

Written by Grace Vera Postles (1906-?)
