FACE TO FACE, by RICHARD EUGENE BURTON Poet's Biography First Line: Long weeks I walked the city's crowded ways Last Line: I meet you, face to face! Subject(s): Cities; Faces; God; Urban Life | ||||||||
LONG weeks I walked the city's crowded ways, And vainly sought to find you, morn and night; By daybreak, when the lamps were all ablaze, And when the noon was bright. But when I turned, and with the will to flee Unto some dim and all-deserted place, Have hurried here where only God may see, -- I meet you, face to face! | Other Poems of Interest...THINGS (FOR AN INDIAN) TO DO IN NEW YORK (CITY) by SHERMAN ALEXIE THE CITY REVISITED by STEPHEN VINCENT BENET PRAISE PSALM OF THE CITY-DWELLER by APRIL BERNARD TEN OXHERDING PICTURES: ENTERING THE CITY WITH BLISS-BESTOWING HANDS by LUCILLE CLIFTON THE CITY OF THE OLESHA FRUIT by NORMAN DUBIE DISCOVERING THE PHOTOGRAPH OF LLOYD, EARL, AND PRISCILLA by LYNN EMANUEL |
