MY COMRADE, by EDWIN MARKHAM Poet Analysis Poet's Biography
First Line: I never build a song by night or day
Last Line: For she can take away the dread of things.
First Line: I never build a song by night or day
Last Line: For she can take away the dread of things.
I NEVER build a song by night or day,
Of breaking ocean or of blowing whin,
But in some wondrous unexpected way,
Like light upon a road, my Love comes in.
And when I go at night upon the hill,
My heart is lifted on mysterious wings:
My Love is there to strengthen and to still,
For she can take away the dread of things.
