Fragmented verse on joy and pain in pursuit of treasure
A poetic fragment ponders how joy wanes without pain and how desire grows with gain. The speaker notes loss dulls the mind’s grip, and pleasure mocks with artificial glitter, hinting at the bittersweet pull of possession.
Rosa Osborne’s Final Sabbath in the Wilderness
Rosa Osborne lies dying in a wilderness homestead as Edgar Ashton’s promised future waits. Mr. Osborne, family, and neighbors sing an Evening Hymn, Rosa dies, is buried beneath a rising rose tree, and a heartfelt letter to Edgar sends resolve across New England. A later traveler learns Rosa’s grave site, marked by a wild rose and a sensitive plant, honors her memory.
