Classic and Contemporary Poetry
FABLE, by RUBY FRANCE ALDRIDGE First Line: I heard you singing Last Line: Was in my face, like a great amen. | |||
I heard you singing, And cool, cool hands Pressed down my fevered thoughts. I heard you weeping, And pain, like a slim Stiletto, ate into my heart. I heard you praying, And the breath of God Was in my face, like a great Amen. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...IN HARDWOOD GROVES by ROBERT FROST THE THREE WARNINGS by HESTER LYNCH (SALUSBURY) PIOZZI THE RE-CURED LOVER EXULTETH IN HIS FREEDOM by THOMAS WYATT CONCERT PARTY: BUSSEBOOM by EDMUND CHARLES BLUNDEN HINC LACHRIMAE; OR THE AUTHOR TO AURORA: 25 by WILLIAM BOSWORTH ELEGY ON A LADY, WHOM GRIEF FOR THE DEATH OF HER BETHROTHED KILLED by ROBERT SEYMOUR BRIDGES |
