Ise been a-climbin on,
And reachin landins,
And turnin corners,
And sometimes goin in the dark
Where there aint been no light.
So boy, dont you turn back.
Dont you set down on the steps
Cause you finds its kinder hard.
Dont you fall now
For Ise still goin, honey,
Ise still climbin,
And life for me aint been no crystal stair.
Edna Saint Vincent Millays poetry is also included in Americans Favorite Poems. She lived during the first half of the twentieth century. She was the first woman to receive the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry, in 1923.
She was also famous for the free way she lived her life and for her many lovers. Here is one of her poems about love, called Sonnet 24.
When you, that at this moment are to me
Dearer than words on paper, shall depart,
And be no more the warder of my heart,
Whereof again myself shall hold the key;
And bed no more what now you seem to be
The sun, from which all excellences start
In a round nimbus, nor a broken dart
Of moonlight, even, splintered on the sea;
I shall remember only of this hour
