Solitude

ByEllaWheelerWilcox

Laugh,andtheworldlaughswithyou;

Weep,andyouweepalone;

Forthesadoldearthmustborrowitsmirth,

Buthastroubleenoughofitsown.

Sing,andthehillswillanswer;

Sigh,itislostontheair;

Theechoesboundtoajoyfulsound,

Butshrinkfromvoicingcare.

Rejoice,andmenwillseekyou;

Grieve,andtheyturnandgo;
