Classic and Contemporary Poetry


LONE-LAND by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: AROUND US LIES A WORLD INVISIBLE
Last Line: AND HOPES ENCOMPASSED BY THE TIDE OF TEARS.
Subject(s): LIFE;

Around us lies a world invisible,
With isles of dreams and many a continent
Of thought and isthmus fancy, where we dwell
Each as a lonely wanderer intent
Upon his vision, finding each his fears
And hopes encompassed by the tide of tears.
