The Crystal Gazer

Sara Teasdale - 1884-1933

 

 

 

I shall gather myself into myself again,

   I shall take my scattered selves and make them one,

Fusing them into a polished crystal ball

   Where I can see the moon and the flashing sun.

 

I shall sit like a sibyl, hour after hour intent,

   Watching the future come and the present go,

And the little shifting pictures of people rushing

   In restless self-importance to and fro.
