RHYTHM by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON

Poet Analysis

First Line: OH, MY FANCY TEEMS WITH A WORLD OF DREAMS
Last Line: ON THE BREATH OF MY SOUL-STRUNG LYRE.
Subject(s): DREAMS; NIGHTMARES;
Oh, my fancy teems with a world of dreams,—
They revolve in a glittering fire,
How they twirl and go with the tunes that flow
On the breath of my soul-strung lyre.
