PEACE (2), by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Peace on a thousand hills and dales Last Line: In brotherhood forever. Alternate Author Name(s): Tremaine, John Subject(s): Peace | |||
Peace on a thousand hills and dales, Peace in the hearts of men While kindliness reclaims the soil Where bitterness has been. The night of strife is drifting past, The storm of shell has ceased, Disrupted is the cordon fell, Sweet charity released. Forth from the shadow, swift we come Wrought in the flame together, All men as one beneath the sun In brotherhood forever. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...HOW MANY NIGHTS by GALWAY KINNELL THE MOTTO by LOUISA SARAH BEVINGTON THE TRUE BEATITUDE by RUPERT BROOKE MAKING PEACE by DENISE LEVERTOV TWO SONGS OF PEACE: 1 by YEHUDA AMICHAI TWO SONGS OF PEACE: 2 by YEHUDA AMICHAI OLD BLACK MEN by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON |
