POETRY by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON

Poet Analysis

First Line: BEHOLD! THE LIVING THRILLING LINES
Last Line: ENTWINES THE FRAGMENTS OF A HEART.
Subject(s): POETRY & POETS;
Behold! the living thrilling lines
That course the blood like madd'ning wines,
And leap with scintillating spray
Across the guards of ecstasy.
The flame that lights the lurid spell
Springs from the soul's artesian well,
Its fairy filament of art
Entwines the fragments of a heart.
