LOVE'S TENDRILS by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON

Poet Analysis

First Line: SWEETER FAR THAN LYRIC RUNE
Last Line: SOUNDS HER HEART-BEAT IN MY SOUL.
Subject(s): BABIES; INFANTS;

Sweeter far than lyric rune
Is my baby's cooing tune;
Brighter than the butterflies
Are the gleams within her eyes;
Firmer than an iron band
Serves the zephyr of her hand;
Deeper than the ocean's roll
Sounds her heart-beat in my soul.
