THE PASSERS BY, by AL-RADI BILLAH First Line: At even unexpectedly Last Line: The throat athirst. | |||

No wonder yearning pricked me so To see them go: The sight of waters tortures worst The throat athirst. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...GOAL by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON STUDY FOR A GEOGRAPHICAL TRAIL; 5.
