LINES TO MISS F., by ANONYMOUS First Line: "forbear, sweet girl; your scheme forego" Last Line: But keep their sister angel there Subject(s): Air Travel;angels;balloons;beauty;faces;women | ||||||||
FORBEAR, sweet girl; your scheme forego, And thus our anxious troubles end: That you will mount, full well we know, But greatly fear you'll not descend. When Angels see a mortal rise, So beautiful, divine and fair, They'll not dismiss you from the skies, But keep their sister Angel there. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ARISTOTLE TO PHYLLIS by JOHN HOLLANDER A WOMAN'S DELUSION by SUSAN HOWE JULIA TUTWILER STATE PRISON FOR WOMEN by ANDREW HUDGINS THE WOMEN ON CYTHAERON by ROBINSON JEFFERS TOMORROW by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD LADIES FOR DINNER, SAIPAN by KENNETH KOCH GOODBYE TO TOLERANCE by DENISE LEVERTOV TIS A LITTLE JOURNEY by ANONYMOUS |
