Читать книгу Gypsy Verses - Whitney Helen Hay - Страница 13

We are very, very old,

We have had our day,

So we bend above our work

While the others play.

Do they call us women, we

Gaunt and grey and grim,

Hideous and sexless things

Weak of brain and limb?

Beauty ended, love long past,

Yet, when all else flees,

We are women, for we still

Have our memories.
