A YOUTH TO HIS FATHER, by WALTER R. ADAMS First Line: Too long a fledgling in the nest Last Line: So loose the bonds: I must go free. Subject(s): Fathers | ||||||||

So loose the bonds: I must go free. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...PLAYING DEAD by ANDREW HUDGINS PRAYER BEFORE BED by ANDREW HUDGINS THE FUNERAL SERMON by ANDREW HUDGINS ELEGY FOR MY FATHER, WHO IS NOT DEAD by ANDREW HUDGINS EUROPE AND AMERICA by DAVID IGNATOW EUROPE AND AMERICA by DAVID IGNATOW ESTATE SALE by WAYNE KOESTENBAUM WINTER TREE by WALTER R.
