Oh! let me go where no children are! Some where, is there a lonely star Where I could see no children at all -- Never be near one, or hear him call? To such a place I must go, must go, Away from this hunger which tears me so; I would escape from each little lad So like the child that I never had. Somewhere, oh, somewhere! one lonely star: Help me to go where no children are! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...TO MAY HOWARD JACKSON - SCULPTOR by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON HENRY MOORE'S STATUE AT LINCOLN CENTER by KAREN SWENSON SNOW IN THE SUBURBS by THOMAS HARDY BIRTHDAY OF DANIEL WEBSTER by OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES GROWING OLD by FRANCIS LEDWIDGE |
