WILD GEESE, by ELLA MOORE MARSHALL First Line: At the sound of the wild geese Last Line: To the port of your heart, my dear! Subject(s): Birds; Geese; Wings | ||||||||
At the sound of the wild geese Screaming, through the dark and the gale, A flock of memories takes flight From the cote of my heart to you. At the sight of the wild geese Flying under the stars and the sky, My fettered love takes wing Over the world to you. At the music of wild wings Whirring, cleaving the trackless way, My soul sets sail with the birds on the gale To the port of your heart, my dear! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ESTATE SALE: THE SCRABBLE GAME OF A DEAD WOMAN by NAOMI SHIHAB NYE FREED FROM ANOTHER CONTEXT by ELEANOR WILNER THE BIRD IN THE LAUREL'S SONG by ELEANOR WILNER THE LITERAL = THE ABSTRACT: A DEMONSTRATION by ELEANOR WILNER |
