Classic and Contemporary Poetry

IN SOLITUDE by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: LIKE AS A BROOK THAT ALL NIGHT LONG
Last Line: THE LULLABY TO HEAR.
Subject(s): POETRY & POETS; SOLITUDE; LONELINESS;
Like as a brook that all night long
Sings, as at noon, a bubble-song
To sleep's unheeding ear,
The poet to himself must sing
When none but God is listening
The lullaby to hear.
