LE SOIR, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: Mute-lipped
Last Line: O'er the edge of day!
Alternate Author Name(s): Tremaine, John


Mute-lipped—
unquestioning grim-visaged Fate,
I cleave the shadows toward the Western Gate;
And yet—
my lagging heart still holds
Mute-arms outstretched
Unto earth's gleaming folds.

Who knows?
perhaps Hope's blossoms spray
In lush profusion
O'er the edge of day!
