IN TIME OF WAR, by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES Poet Analysis First Line: As I go walking down the street Last Line: "the lads those lasses court are dead." Alternate Author Name(s): Davies, W. H. Subject(s): War | |||
AS I go walking down the street Many's the lad and lass I meet; There's many a soldier I see pass, And every soldier has his lass. But when I saw the others there, The women that black mourning wear, "Judged by the looks of these," I said, "The lads those lasses court are dead." | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...I AM YOUR WAITER TONIGHT AND MY NAME IS DIMITRI by ROBERT HASS MITRAILLIATRICE by ERNEST HEMINGWAY RIPARTO D'ASSALTO by ERNEST HEMINGWAY WAR VOYEURS by JUAN FELIPE HERRERA THE DREAM OF WAKING by RANDALL JARRELL THE SURVIVOR AMONG GRAVES by RANDALL JARRELL SO MANY BLOOD-LAKES by ROBINSON JEFFERS A BIRD'S ANGER by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES |
