WHAT IS ART?
203
If he asks for you,
Say what answer then?
Give him my gold ring
And answer not a thing ....
Should he question me
Concerning the last hour?
Say I smiled for fear
That he should shed a tear....
Should he question more
Without knowing me ?
Like a sister speak;
Suffering he may be....
Should he question why
Empty is the hall?
Show the gaping door,
The lamp alight no more....
