ONE DAY by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON

Poet Analysis

First Line: GOOD-BYE DEAR DAY OF SUNSHINE, RAIN
Last Line: WHICH NOTHING CAN DESTROY.

Good-bye dear day of sunshine, rain
In flooding torrents pours
Its liquid footsteps on my roof,
Its fingers on my doors.

While I sit tranquilly within
And tell my beads of joy,
Holding a peace within my heart
Which nothing can destroy.
