DAWN AND DUSK - SAN DIEGO, by CHARLES PHILLIPS (1880-1933) First Line: Quick as the waking laughter of a child Last Line: Against the night's dark breast. Subject(s): Dawn; Dusk; San Diego, California; Sunrise | |||
Quick as the waking laughter of a child, Sudden as windblown rain, The sea-voice, murmuring in the gray of dawn, Begins its long refrain: Soft as the gentle sleeping of a child, Light as a baby's rest, The sea-voice hushes all its singing now Against the night's dark breast. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THIS MORNING, GOD by LAURE-ANNE BOSSELAAR BURNING DAWN by HAYDEN CARRUTH DAWN by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON IN THE GARDEN AT THE DAWN HOUR by EDGAR LEE MASTERS EARLY RISER by NAOMI SHIHAB NYE WORDS WHEN WE NEED THEM by NAOMI SHIHAB NYE CHIPS by CHARLES PHILLIPS (1880-1933) IPHIGENIA IN AULIS (GREEK THEATER, AUGUST 14, 1915) by CHARLES PHILLIPS (1880-1933) |
