TOMORROW by PERCY BYSSHE SHELLEY

Poet Analysis

First Line: WHERE ART THOU, BELOVED TOMORROW?
Last Line: WE FIND THE THING WE FLED -- TO-DAY.
Subject(s): TIME;

WHERE art thou, beloved To-morrow?
When young and old, and strong and weak,
Rich and poor, through joy and sorrow,
Thy sweet smiles we ever seek, --
In thy place -- ah! well-a-day!
We find the thing we fled -- To-day.
