EDUCATION, by VIRGINIA WOODS MACKALL First Line: God is good, and teaches me Last Line: For not trusting him too much. Subject(s): Education; God; Religion; Theology | ||||||||
God is good, and teaches me Sober facts continually. He has taught me what I am And the proper use of damn; He has humbled me by showing All the little sins worth knowing; He has let me hear him laugh At man's pious phonograph; And has blessed me, with his touch, For not trusting him too much. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...MYSTIC BOUNCE by TERRANCE HAYES MATHEMATICS CONSIDERED AS A VICE by ANTHONY HECHT UNHOLY SONNET 11 by MARK JARMAN SHINE, PERISHING REPUBLIC by ROBINSON JEFFERS THE COMING OF THE PLAGUE by WELDON KEES A LITHUANIAN ELEGY by ROBERT KELLY COMPENSATION by VIRGINIA WOODS MACKALL |
