IT'S A LONG WAY, by WILLIAM STANLEY BRAITHWAITE Poet's Biography First Line: It's a long way the sea-winds blow Last Line: My dreams forevermore. Subject(s): Wind | ||||||||
IT'S a long way the sea-winds blow Over the sea-plains blue, -- But longer far has my heart to go Before its dreams come true. It's work we must, and love we must, And do the best we may, And take the hope of dreams in trust To keep us day by day. It's a long way the sea-winds blow -- But somewhere lies a shore -- Thus down the tide of Time shall flow My dreams forevermore. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE THREE CHILDREN by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN THE WIND by LOUISE MOREY BOWMAN LEAF LITTER ON ROCK FACE by HEATHER MCHUGH RESIDENTIAL AREA by JOSEPHINE MILES THE DAY THE WINDS by JOSEPHINE MILES VARIATIONS: 12 by CONRAD AIKEN OH IT'S PRETTY WINDY OUTSIDE by LARRY EIGNER SCINTILLA by WILLIAM STANLEY BRAITHWAITE |
