SONG, FR. ARTAXERXES (OPERA), by THOMAS AUGUSTINE ARNE First Line: Water, parted from the sea Last Line: Till it reach its native home. Subject(s): Farewell; Travel; Parting; Journeys; Trips | |||
WATER, parted from the sea, May increase the river's tide, To the bubbling fount may flee, Or through fertile valleys glide. Though in search of lost repose, Through the land 'tis free to roam, Still it murmurs as it flows, Till it reach its native home. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...RICHARD, WHAT'S THAT NOISE? by RICHARD HOWARD LOOKING FOR THE GULF MOTEL by RICHARD BLANCO RIVERS INTO SEAS by LYNDA HULL DESTINATIONS by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN THE ONE WHO WAS DIFFERENT by RANDALL JARRELL THE CONFESSION OF ST.
