DESIRE by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON

Poet Analysis

First Line: OPE! YE EVERLASTING DOORS, UNTO MY SOUL'S DEMAND
Last Line: AND I MUST STAND WITHIN THE HALLS RESPLENDENT, OF MY DREAMS.
Subject(s): DREAMS; NIGHTMARES;

Ope! ye everlasting doors, unto my soul's demand,
I would go forward, fare beyond these dusty boulevards,
Faint lights and fair allure me all insistently
And I must stand within the halls resplendent, of my dreams.
