REST WHERE YOU ARE, by CHARLES POOLE CLEAVES First Line: When spurred by tasks unceasing or undone Last Line: Rest where you are. | |||
When spurred by tasks unceasing or undone You would seek rest afar And cannot, though the rest be fairly won, Rest where you are. Not in event, restriction, or release, In journeys near or far, But in the heart lies restlessness or peace, Rest where you are. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE KING'S THRESHOLD by WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS GLOIRE DE DIJON by DAVID HERBERT LAWRENCE THE SONNET by WILLIAM WORDSWORTH PARABLE by EDMUND CHARLES BLUNDEN ORPHEUS AND EURYDICE by VALERY YAKOVLEVICH BRYUSOV |
