A lad once dreamed he would be king, A lad from Nazareth town; That he would sit upon a throne And wear imperial crown ... And by and by the dream came true He dreamed in Galilee, And he was lifted up so high That all the world could see ... He there was lifted up against The dark horizon's rim; He bore a Cross to Calvary And it exalted Him. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...MYSTIC BOUNCE by TERRANCE HAYES MATHEMATICS CONSIDERED AS A VICE by ANTHONY HECHT UNHOLY SONNET 11 by MARK JARMAN SHINE, PERISHING REPUBLIC by ROBINSON JEFFERS THE COMING OF THE PLAGUE by WELDON KEES A LITHUANIAN ELEGY by ROBERT KELLY |
