Rodin's Penseur

Marianne Moore

The woman, the shepherd, the father:
the coin, the sheep, and the son:
The union of triple sorrow
Expressed in the face of one.

Marianne Moore was an American poet and essayist who received the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Award, and the National Medal for Literature.
