Emily Romano, US Rhymed Verse The Echo   Only a voice From out the night, Only a cry From some far height That echoes once Before the light. Only a voice, Only a cry That no one heard Other than I, Plagued by its echo. Who knows why?   Poem Source: "A Cry" by Sara Teasdale: http://www.famouspoetsandpoems.com/poets/sara_teasdale/poems/17943                      A Cry   Oh, there are eyes that he can see, And hands to make his hands rejoice, But to my lover I must be Only a voice. Oh, there are breasts to bear his head, And lips whereon his lips can lie, But I must be till I am dead Only a cry. Sara Teasdale note” I use 2 phrases: “only a voice” & “only a cry”
