LITTLE CHARLIE HADES, by JULIA A. MOORE Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Little charlie hades has gone Last Line: For their little infant son. Alternate Author Name(s): Sweet Singer Of Michigan Subject(s): Peace | ||||||||
Little Charlie Hades has gone To dwell with God above, Where live the little angel throng In perfect peace and love. His little spirit now is free, Free from all earthly pain; His little form no more can be In the bright earth again. His little life was short on earth, Being but three years old; His little form so full of mirth, Now the cold earth enfold. In her embrace she gently keeps His form she calls her own, There sweetly sleeping his last sleep, Quietly all alone. His laughing eyes of violet blue, Are closed in deep repose; His curly hair of coal black hue, His little head inclose. In beauty he was bright and fair, He was his friends' delight; They miss his footsteps everywhere, From morning until night. That innocent voice full of glee, On earth is heard no more; That precious soul from sin is free, And will be evermore. His parents mourn for Charlie dear, Their loving little one; And oft times they will shed a tear For their little infant son. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...HOW MANY NIGHTS by GALWAY KINNELL THE MOTTO by LOUISA SARAH BEVINGTON THE TRUE BEATITUDE by RUPERT BROOKE MAKING PEACE by DENISE LEVERTOV TWO SONGS OF PEACE: 1 by YEHUDA AMICHAI TWO SONGS OF PEACE: 2 by YEHUDA AMICHAI ADVICE TO LITTLE CHILDREN by JULIA A.
