Timeless Emotions,
By A Customer
This review is from: The best of Ella Wheeler Wilcox; (Hardcover)
As luck would have it, I happened across a poetry book one day that included some of Ella Wheeler Wilcox's work. I was immediately fascinated. I was not a usual poetry reader, but by the time I finished the few poems in the book, I had aquired a thirst for E.W.W. poetry. The author died in 1919 so her work is very hard to find today. I was thrilled to see it at Amazon. I titled my review "Timeless Emotions" because Ella speaks of heartrendering plights we have all experienced, but never stop to really analyze. One poem titled "Lady Of Tears" expresses the anguish of an oncoming sorrow, yet realizes that the tears are actually a relief, a conclusion to the sadness. Ella is also the author of "Laugh and the world laughs with you, Weep and you weep alone..." I'm sure if Ella Wheeler Wilcox were alive today (physically), she would be at least as popular as she was a century ago.
