THE DREAMERS, by THOMAS CURTIS CLARK First Line: We are the dreamers, we are they who go Last Line: And death shall find us following a star! | |||
We are the dreamers, we are they who go On vagrant quests for things no man may see; We are the shining knights of poverty Who fight for victories we cannot know. We rise, alert, to greet the morning's glow; At night, defeated, dream of what shall be. We ask no dole, we make no strident plea, We do not cherish hatred for a foe. Our one demand is that we still may dream, Above the fields of slain, a dream of peace; That we may still pursue bright Beauty's gleam Amid the ugliness of things that are. We shall not yield, nor doubt, as years increase, And Death shall find us following a Star! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ABRAHAM LINCOLN, THE MASTER by THOMAS CURTIS CLARK AT HALF-MAST by THOMAS CURTIS CLARK BLIND GUIDES by THOMAS CURTIS CLARK BUGLE SONG OF PEACE; A PROPHECY FOR MEMORIAL DAY by THOMAS CURTIS CLARK CAESAR AND CHRIST by THOMAS CURTIS CLARK CARRY ON! by THOMAS CURTIS CLARK CHALLENGE by THOMAS CURTIS CLARK EARTH'S STORY by THOMAS CURTIS CLARK FAITH AND SCIENCE by THOMAS CURTIS CLARK FAITH FOR TOMORROW by THOMAS CURTIS CLARK |
