AND HE DIED, by P. J. CAZELLO First Line: And he died, each record ends Last Line: The record will show in the end. Subject(s): Forgetfulness | ||||||||
And he died, each record ends. Even the longest struggle thus bends The highthe lowly cannot suspend This thought, of such an end. 'Tis an end, yet a beginning, my friend, A promise which Christ did defend. So on ill tongues do not depend Else this beginning in torture will end. This great beginning that has no end, On how we cherish it will all depend. When clothed in the fleshhow we did spend? The record will show in the end. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...TWO SONNETS: 1 by DAVID LEHMAN THE MUSIC BOX by NAOMI SHIHAB NYE MUDDY KID COMES HOME by SANDRA CISNEROS FUNCTIONAL FORGETTING by STEPHEN DOBYNS SHOYN FERGESSIN: 'I'VE FORGOTTEN' IN YIDDISH by ALBERT GOLDBARTH THE GIFT TO SING by JAMES WELDON JOHNSON SINGING BACK THE WORLD by DORIANNE LAUX IT'S NOT COLD HERE by ELEANOR WILNER |
