Friday Poetry: Eleanor Farjeon

higgy88 Poetry February 25, 2022 1 Minute

Happy Friday!

I hope everyone has had a good week so far.

My chosen poem this week is by Eleanor Farjeon.

The Night Will Never Stay

The night will never stay,
The night will still go by,
Though with a million stars
You pin it to the sky,
Though you bind it with the blowing wind
And buckle it with the moon,
The night will slip away
Like sorrow or a tune.

Eleanor Farjeon
