THE MAN WITHOUT A COUNTRY, by H. F. H. First Line: The 'man without a country' was in such a sorry plight Last Line: Just wait until you see some time the man without a cent. Subject(s): Puberty | ||||||||
THE "man without a country" was in such a sorry plight, There wasn't any place on land where he might pass the night, But if you'd like to see a man as badly off as he, Who hasn't any place at all to stay on land or sea, Who has no spot he may enjoy to any great extent, Just wait until you see some time the man without a cent. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...WEALTH by ANNA HEMPSTEAD BRANCH THE LENTEN MAID by SIDNEY ROBINSON KENNEDY ADOLESCENT by VIOLET ALLEYN STOREY GRACE OF CYNTHIA'S MAIDENHOOD by VINNIE-MARIE D'AMBROSIO PLAYBOY VICE ROYALS by NATALIE KENVIN TO THE CIGARETTE GIRL by H.
