THERE IS BEAUTY EVERYWHERE, by MARY RYAN COOPER First Line: There's beauty everywhere Last Line: May end in misery. Subject(s): Beauty | ||||||||
There's beauty everywhere, And facts we do not know; Scenes of bliss, wondrous fair, Where cool, sweet zephyrs blow. There are hills and valleys That we will never see, Where the rainbow dallies In joy and ecstasy. Many lakes and rivers Which man has never seen, Ocean caves where divers In dreams only have been; Many precious treasures We crush beneath our feet. Scores of passing pleasures In fear we fail to meet. So many fruitful years Pass with their golden grain, We spend in useless tears, In ventures that are vain. Through joys and woes we go, Shrouded in mystery; Bright hopes that we cherish so May end in misery. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...VARIATIONS: 14 by CONRAD AIKEN DIVINELY SUPERFLUOUS BEAUTY by ROBINSON JEFFERS THE BEAUTY OF THINGS by ROBINSON JEFFERS HOPE IS NOT FOR THE WISE by ROBINSON JEFFERS LIFE FROM THE LIFELESS by ROBINSON JEFFERS REARMAMENT by ROBINSON JEFFERS SHANE ONEILLS CAIRN by ROBINSON JEFFERS LONELY BURIAL by STEPHEN VINCENT BENET |
