MY HERO, by ETHEL MAE ARTZ First Line: I am not dead, I live again! Last Line: But I bow in gratitude to god. Subject(s): Heroism; Miracles; Heroes; Heroines | ||||||||
I am not dead, I live again! In a land of beautiful scenes, Because my hero had decided to win, While others gave up in despair. All day I lay there wondering If alone I must fight this game. If I died, what of her I kept pondering? But my hero saved me that day. Who, by some miracle through man Has made my sick body whole again? My hero is my doctor, great, noble man. But I bow in gratitude to God. | Other Poems of Interest...THE EPIC STARS by ROBINSON JEFFERS THE CONFESSION OF ST.
