THINGS I LOVE, by CRISTEL HASTINGS First Line: I love the winds that sing of roaring sails Last Line: And little things that make me think of you! Subject(s): Evening; Sunset; Twilight | ||||||||
I love the winds that sing of roaring sails That go their spindrift way down trackless lanes -- And then again, I love the early glow Of candlelight against the dripping panes. I love the door of home and glowing hearth, The solitude of hills -- a whispering pine -- The fragrance of a rain-swept trail at dusk, And little pools where silver stars may shine. A song when night comes groping over hills, The drowsy chirp of birds, and bits of blue Between the grayish clouds that roof the moor -- And little things that make me think of you! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...JOURNEY INTO THE EYE by DAVID LEHMAN FEBRUARY EVENING IN NEW YORK by DENISE LEVERTOV THE HOUSE OF DUST: 1 by CONRAD AIKEN TWILIGHT COMES by HAYDEN CARRUTH IN THE EVENINGS by LUCILLE CLIFTON NINETEEN FORTY by NORMAN DUBIE |
