PRAIRIE NIGHT, by HARRIET SEYMOUR First Line: I love to go on a straight, white road Last Line: At my scarf, as I go by. Subject(s): Prairies; Roads; Travel; Plains; Paths; Trails; Journeys; Trips | ||||||||
I love to go on a straight, white road Into a prairie night, With its orange-windowed darkness, where The houses are alight. The vixen stars above the road Would lure me to the sky; The cool, young breeze pulls wistfully At my scarf, as I go by. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...RICHARD, WHAT'S THAT NOISE? by RICHARD HOWARD LOOKING FOR THE GULF MOTEL by RICHARD BLANCO RIVERS INTO SEAS by LYNDA HULL DESTINATIONS by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN THE ONE WHO WAS DIFFERENT by RANDALL JARRELL THE CONFESSION OF ST.
