A VENDOR OF POEMS, by VIRGINIA O'DARE First Line: A vendor of poems is a vendor of dreams Last Line: That never perish or change with time. Subject(s): Poetry & Poets | ||||||||
A vendor of poems is a vendor of dreams, He answers the call when the sunlight gleams; He muses beneath the stars of the night; Through rhythmical words he brings to light A soul embedded in material clay, Through which God speaks to man each day. A vendor of poems is a vendor of gold, He banishes care with the rhythm they hold; He speaks with a tongue divinely inspired, From his world of dreams he is never tired Of bringing forth beauty in words sublime, That never perish or change with time. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ENVY OF OTHER PEOPLE'S POEMS by ROBERT HASS THE NINETEENTH CENTURY AS A SONG by ROBERT HASS THE FATALIST: TIME IS FILLED by LYN HEJINIAN OXOTA: A SHORT RUSSIAN NOVEL: CHAPTER 192 by LYN HEJINIAN LET ME TELL YOU WHAT A POEM BRINGS by JUAN FELIPE HERRERA JUNE JOURNALS 6/25/88 by JUAN FELIPE HERRERA FOLLOW ROZEWICZ by JUAN FELIPE HERRERA HAVING INTENDED TO MERELY PICK ON AN OIL COMPANY, THE POEM GOES AWRY by HICOK.
