TO A SIX-YEAR-OLD, by JESSIE MORRIS First Line: Enchanted, you listen to music Last Line: Intangible, lost magic! Subject(s): Children; Childhood | ||||||||

I catch a glimpse of felicity That touches an old chord, But so faintly, I must hold my breath to hear it. Intangible, lost magic! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE THREE CHILDREN by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN CHILDREN SELECTING BOOKS IN A LIBRARY by RANDALL JARRELL COME TO THE STONE ... by RANDALL JARRELL THE LOST WORLD by RANDALL JARRELL A SICK CHILD by RANDALL JARRELL CONTINENT'S END by ROBINSON JEFFERS ON THE DEATH OF FRIENDS IN CHILDHOOD by DONALD JUSTICE THE POET AT SEVEN by DONALD JUSTICE IMMORTAL DREAM by JESSIE MORRIS |
