Poems (Radford)/If all the World were Right

by Dollie Radford

XX

If all the world were right, How fair our love could grow,At what a radiant height Its shining flower would blow.

Through what untroubled air Its fragrant boughs would spread,On fruit how sweet and rare Might we be freely fed.

But ah, what should we tend, In sorrow and delight,Our hearts how could we spend, If all the world were right!
