THE LOON, by LEW SARETT Poet's Biography
First Line: A lonely lake, a lonely shore

Subject(s): Loons
First Line: A lonely lake, a lonely shore
Last Line: And beating at his bars.
Subject(s): Loons
A lonely lake, a lonely shore,
A lone pine leaning on the moon;
All night the water-beating wings
Of a solitary loon.
With mournful wail from dusk to dawn
He gibbered at the taunting stars, --
A hermit-soul gone raving mad,
And beating at his bars.
