LET ME NOT LOSES MY DREAM by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON

Poet Analysis

First Line: LET ME NOT LOSE MY DREAM, E'EN THOUGH I SCAN THE VEIL WITH EYES UNSEEING ...
Last Line: HOLD ME, AND GUARD, LEST ANGUISH TEAR MY DREAMS AWAY!
Subject(s): DREAMS; NIGHTMARES;
Let me not lose my dream, e'en though I scan the veil with eyes unseeing through

their glaze of tears,
Let me not falter, though the rungs of fortune perish as I fare above the
tumult, praying purer air,
Let me not lose the vision, gird me, Powers that toss the worlds, I pray!
Hold me, and guard, lest anguish tear my dreams away!
