BY AN INLAND LAKE, by WILLIAM STANLEY BRAITHWAITE Poet's Biography First Line: Long drawn, the cool, green shadows Last Line: Thro' golden, august noons. Subject(s): Lakes; Pools; Ponds | |||
LONG drawn, the cool, green shadows Steal o'er the lake's warm breast, And the ancient silence follows The burning sun to rest. The calm of a thousand summers, And dreams of countless Junes, Return when the lake-wind murmurs Thro' golden, August noons. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A MAN GETS OFF WORK EARLY by THOMAS LUX THE FRIARY AT BLOSSOM, PROLOGUE & INSTRUCTIONS by NORMAN DUBIE SONGS FOR TWO SEASONS: 2.
