SHADOW, by ANTOINETTE MORRIS First Line: Shadow in the moonlight / beautiful whirling Last Line: Beauty never should be such. Subject(s): Shadows | ||||||||
Shadow in the moonlight Beautiful whirling fay Marble in the moonlight Silver and golden spray. . . . Whirling bit of marble Silhouette against the moon. . . . Dancing song of beauty, Fleet, and gone so soon. Feet that spin to moonlight, Grass that longs their touch, Song of wind and rain of light, Beauty never should be such. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE ANIMAL INSIDE THE ANIMAL by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN DRIVING ALONGSIDE THE HOUSANTONIC RIVER ALONE ON A RAINY APRIL NIGHT by WILLIAM MATTHEWS NOCTURNE IN A MINOR KEY by CONRAD AIKEN SONATA IN PATHOS by CONRAD AIKEN I LOOKED FOR LIFE AND DID A SHADOW SEE by JAMES GALVIN MAUBERLEY: 5.
