Aphrodite Quote by Sara Teasdale

“Ah, Aphrodite, if I sing no moreTo thee, God's daughter, powerful as God,It is that thou hast made my life too sweetTo hold the added sweetness of a song.There is a quiet at the heart of love,And I have pierced the pain and come to peace.” quote by Sara Teasdale — Download Open image
