I TRAVEL TO THE POET'S MART, by AMY REDPATH RODDICK First Line: A lovely song is in my heart Last Line: A lovely song. Subject(s): Poetry & Poets | |||
A lovely song is in my heart: It has no words; but it is part Of my own self. I wonder much If I could venture how to touch A golden ray or speed a dart To win a star; I try a start And should it fail I lack in art; Still it might do at least to crutch A lovely song. I travel to the Poet's mart On foot or in a bullock cart; Apollo's car, sky-faring such Elude my reach; I can just clutch My wagon's lamp that may not swart A lovely song. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ENVY OF OTHER PEOPLE'S POEMS by ROBERT HASS THE NINETEENTH CENTURY AS A SONG by ROBERT HASS THE FATALIST: TIME IS FILLED by LYN HEJINIAN OXOTA: A SHORT RUSSIAN NOVEL: CHAPTER 192 by LYN HEJINIAN LET ME TELL YOU WHAT A POEM BRINGS by JUAN FELIPE HERRERA JUNE JOURNALS 6/25/88 by JUAN FELIPE HERRERA FOLLOW ROZEWICZ by JUAN FELIPE HERRERA HAVING INTENDED TO MERELY PICK ON AN OIL COMPANY, THE POEM GOES AWRY by HICOK.
