SONG by HANIEL (CLARK) LONG

Poet Analysis

First Line: POPPIES PARAMOUR THE GIRLS
Last Line: OR THE RESCUE OF THE SUN.
Poppies paramour the girls;
Lilies put the boys to bed;
Death is nothing else than this
After everything is said.

They are safe and shall not fade,
After everything is done,
Past the solace of the shade
Or the rescue of the sun.
