[Me you often meet] |
 | The Complete Poems of Christina Rossetti |  |
[Me you often meet]
Me you often meetIn London's crowded street,
And merry children's voices my resting-place proclaim.
Pictures and prose and verse
Compose me—I rehearse
Evil and good and folly, and call each by its name.
I make men glad, and I
Can bid their senses fly,
And festive echoes know me of Isis and of Cam.
But give me to a friend,
And amity will end,
Though he may have the temper and meekness of a lamb.
