SANDY STAR: 5. ONUS PROBANDI, by WILLIAM STANLEY BRAITHWAITE Poet's Biography First Line: No more from out the sunset Last Line: With the secret on his brow. Subject(s): Absence; Separation; Isolation | |||
No more from out the sunset, No more across the foam, No more across the windy hills Will Sandy Star come home. He went away to search it With a curse upon his tongue: And in his hand the staff of life, Made music as it swung. I wonder if he found it, And knows the mystery now — Our Sandy Star who went away, With the secret on his brow. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE EVENING OF THE MIND by DONALD JUSTICE CHRISTMAS AWAY FROM HOME by JANE KENYON THE PROBLEM by CHARLOTTE FISKE BATES WHEN A WOMAN LOVES A MAN by DAVID LEHMAN THIS UNMENTIONABLE FEELING by DAVID LEHMAN SCINTILLA by WILLIAM STANLEY BRAITHWAITE |
