  The Shrine  

There is no lord within my heart,
    Left silent as an empty shrine
    Where rose and myrtle intertwine,
Within a place apart.

No god is there of carven stone
    To watch with still approving eyes
    My thoughts like steady incense rise;
I dream and weep alone.

But if I keep my altar fair,
    Some morning I shall lift my head
    From roses deftly garlanded
To find the god is there.
