HAVE me in the blue and the sun. Have me on the open sea and the mountains. When I go into the grass of the sea floor, I will go alone. This is where I came from -- the chlorine and the salt are blood and bones. It is here the nostrils rush the air to the lungs. It is here oxygen clamors to be let in. And here in the root grass of the sea floor I will go alone. Love goes far. Here love ends. Have me in the blue and the sun. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SWALLOW FLIGHT by SARA TEASDALE TO THE FAIR CLARINDA, WHO MADE LOVE TO ME by APHRA BEHN THE BURIED FLOWER by WILLIAM EDMONSTOUNE AYTOUN THE LOVER'S VIGIL by WILLIAM ROSE BENET PSALM 90 by OLD TESTAMENT BIBLE TO THE MEMORY OF MY DEAR DAUGHTER IN LAW by ANNE BRADSTREET VALEDICTORY; THE SCHOLAR TO THE ASHES OF HIS LIBRARY by CHARLES WILLIAM BRODRIBB |
