THE STIMULUS OF FRIENDSHIP, by ANONYMOUS First Line: "because of your firm faith, I kept the track" Last Line: So I kept right Subject(s): Faith;friendship; Belief;creed | |||
Because of your firm faith, I kept the track Whose sharp set stones my strength had almost spent— I could not meet your eyes, if I turned back, So on I went. Because of your strong love, I held my path When battered, worn and bleeding in the fight— How could I meet your true eyes, blazing wrath? So I kept right. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...UNHOLY SONNET 4 by MARK JARMAN QUIA ABSURDUM by ROBINSON JEFFERS GOING TO THE HORSE FLATS by ROBINSON JEFFERS SONNET TO FORTUNE by LUCY AIKEN JONATHAN EDWARDS IN WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS by ROBERT LOWELL |
