A BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE, by MAZIE V. CARUTHERS Poet's Biography First Line: Some, fingering the leaves of memory's book Last Line: Began, continued, ended -- all with you! Subject(s): Books; Reading | |||
Some, fingering the leaves of memory's book, Linger at one especial page to look -- Thus visioning again in fancy's way The vanished gladness of a by-gone day -- Living once more a happy hour, that cheers The dreary routine of life's emptier years. To find just one such page, I do not need. But opening my book haphazard -- read In every chapter, records of dear days Set with white mile-stones all along their ways -- Because, Dear Heart, the whole thick volume through, Began, continued, ended -- all with You! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...TWO SONNETS: 1 by DAVID LEHMAN THE ILLUSTRATION?ÇÖA FOOTNOTE by DENISE LEVERTOV FALLING ASLEEP OVER THE AENEID by ROBERT LOWELL POETRY MACHINES by CATE MARVIN LENDING LIBRARY by PHYLLIS MCGINLEY A STAR-GAZER GOES HIGHER by MAZIE V.
