REST WHERE YOU ARE, by CHARLES POOLE CLEAVES First Line: When spurred by tasks unceasing or undone Last Line: Rest where you are. | |||
When spurred by tasks unceasing or undone You would seek rest afar And cannot, though the rest be fairly won, Rest where you are. Not in event, restriction, or release, In journeys near or far, But in the heart lies restlessness or peace, Rest where you are. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...TO DICK, ON HIS SIXTH BIRTHDAY by SARA TEASDALE THE ROAST BEEF OF OLD ENGLAND by HENRY FIELDING GOING AND STAYING by THOMAS HARDY YOU ON THE TOWER by THOMAS HARDY WITH AN ALBUM by WALTER SAVAGE LANDOR VERSES WRITTEN IN AN ALBUM OF A LADY'S COMMON-PLACE BOOK by THOMAS MOORE SING-SONG; A NURSERY RHYME BOOK: 93 by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI VERSES TO HER WHO IS JUSTLY ENTITLED TO THEM by BERNARD BARTON |
