当人们以高分贝喊响她的前辈诗人Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Walt Whiteman时，她基本上不被人们记起；而当同时代的骄子William Carlos Williams横空出世，光耀盖人，使她更是像黯淡的小星星。同辈像Ezra Pound, Marianne Moore, Thomas Stearns Eliot在学术界中也比她更加滋润鲜活，文学史上厚实的评述让他们灿烂无比。或许她的生命旅程结束得过早，她本应属于人类的才情与同她的生活志趣、更好的诗篇也随之湮没。
Oh if I were the velvet rose
啊——好想，好想
Upon the red rose vine,
是藤上绒玫扶你窗，
I'd climb to touch his window
扶你窗呀——
And make his casement fine.
让你眼一亮；
And if I were the little bird
啊——好想，好想
That twitters on the tree,
是只小鸟在树上，
All day I'd sing my love for him
整天唱呀——爱你，爱你
Till he should harken me.
句句唱进你心底；

But since I am a maiden
唉——女生呀——我是女生，
I go with downcast eyes,
每每沉吟的眼睛，
And he will never hear the songs
我的歌呀——你听不懂，
That he has turned to sighs.
害你气叹神忡忡；
And since I am a maiden
唉——女生呀——我是女生，
My love will never know
我的爱呀——你怎能懂，
That I could kiss him with a mouth c
那是惊艳双唇一袭吻，
More red than roses blow. b
更比千朵万朵玫瑰红。

But since I am a maiden
唉——女生呀——可我是女生，
I go with downcast eyes,
每每沉吟的眼睛，
And he will never hear the songs
我歌唱呀——你听不懂，
That he has turned to sighs.
害你气叹神忡忡；
And since I am a maiden
唉——女生呀——我是女生，
My love will never know
我的爱呀——你哪能懂，
That I could kiss him with a mouth
它是惊艳双唇一袭吻，一袭吻呀——
More red than roses blow.
更比千朵万朵玫瑰红。
