Of empty cups , of broken vows ,

As she rocks nnd sings to the baby ,
And droama us she rocks nnd sings.
I hoar her rocking the baby ,

And I hear her leaving her good-night kiss
On its eyes and cheek and brow.
From her recking , rocking , rocking ,
I wonder would she start ,
Corld she know , through the wall between
She is rocking on n heart ?
While my empty nnns aching
For n form they may not press ,
And my empty heart is broak'ng
In its desolate loneliness.
I list to the rocking , rocking ,

And breathe n prayer in silence-
Atn mother's broken shrine ,
For the woman who rocks the baby
In the room just next to mine.
