ELEMENTAL, by VERNE BRIGHT First Line: Fire, malevolent, can char Last Line: Love is much akin to these. | |||
Fire, malevolent, can char And make a cinder of a star. Water, with its trivial thrust, Can grind a continent to dust. With its swift obsidian dart, Frost can break a mountain's heart.... To a soul bereft of ease, Love is much akin to these. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...HARVEST OUT OF STONE by VERNE BRIGHT LAMENT FOR OLD MEN by VERNE BRIGHT LAMENT FOR PIONEERS by VERNE BRIGHT ONLY THE HEART IS HAUNTED by VERNE BRIGHT THE JOY OF THE HILLS by EDWIN MARKHAM DEAD IN THE SIERRAS by CINCINNATUS HEINE MILLER THE HOUSE OF LIFE: 27.
