Poem A Day Open in app

Classic poem

They say that "Time assuages" --

by Emily Dickinson

They say that "Time assuages" --

Time never did assuage --

An actual suffering strengthens

As Sinews do, with age --

Time is a Test of Trouble --

But not a Remedy --

If such it prove, it prove too

There was no Malady --
