WAR IS KIND: 24 by STEPHEN CRANE

Poet Analysis

First Line: AY, WORKMAN, MAKE ME A DREAM
Last Line: AND LET THERE BE A MAN WALKING THEREON.

Ay, workman, make me a dream,
A dream for my love.
Cunningly weave sunlight,
Breezes, and flowers.
Let it be of the cloth of meadows.
And -- good workman --
And let there be a man walking thereon.
