| The Best Thing in the World What's the best thing in the world ? June-rose, by May-dew impearled; Sweet south wind, that means no rain; Truth, not cruel to a friend; Pleasure, not in haste to end; Beauty, not self-decked and curled Till its pride is over plain; Light, that never makes you wink; Memory, that gives no pain; Love, when so, you're loved again. What's the best thing in the world ? - something out of it, I think. Elizabeth Barratt Browning |
