Kate Chopin : 3 poems

A little day is mine 'twixt night and night
So short 'tis nearly done—
There might have been more joy more light
Yet do the shades come without the sun—
I'll be no grumbler—take it all in all—
'Tis better than t'have had no day at all.



A day with a splash of sunlight,
Some mist and a little rain.
A life with a dash of love-light,
Some dreams and a touch of pain.
To love a little and then to die!
To live a little and never know why!



Because they must, the birds sing.
The earth turns new in Spring
Because it must—'Tis only man
That does because he can
And knowing good from ill,
Chooses because he will—
