O, MY FRIEND by EDGAR LEE MASTERS

Poet Analysis

Last Line: THAT SOMEWHERE I CAN LAUGH AND TALK LONG HOURS WITH YOU AGAIN
Subject(s): FRIENDSHIP;

What fitting word can I say?
You, my chum!
My companion of infinite talks,
My inspiration,
My guide,
Through whom I saw myself at best:
You, the light of this western country.
You, a great richness.
A Glory,
A charm
Product and treasure of these states .

Bill, I knew you had gone. I
I was walking down into town this morning:
And amid the hurry of cars and the flash of this July sun ,
You came to me.
At least the intimation came to me:
And may it be you.
That somewhere I can laugh and talk long hours with you again
