SONG AT DUSK, by JEAN KAMPSCHROEDER First Line: There are no flashing tongues of fire Last Line: God has been so good. Subject(s): Gratitude; Love | ||||||||
There are no flashing tongues of fire But only embers dying And that is just, for it is dusk Light should be gone. But in my heart there is no gloom, or sadness No pain in bidding day good bye For I have lived this day I have been rich loving you. I could ask no more God has been so good. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE INVENTION OF LOVE by MATTHEA HARVEY TWO VIEWS OF BUSON by ROBERT HASS A LOVE FOR FOUR VOICES: HOMAGE TO FRANZ JOSEPH HAYDN by ANTHONY HECHT AN OFFERING FOR PATRICIA by ANTHONY HECHT LATE AFTERNOON: THE ONSLAUGHT OF LOVE by ANTHONY HECHT A SWEETENING ALL AROUND ME AS IT FALLS by JANE HIRSHFIELD AN OLD WOMAN by JEAN KAMPSCHROEDER |
