Classic and Contemporary Poetry
TO A DANCING PARTNER, by MAX EASTMAN First Line: Suppose that in my poem you shall find Last Line: Will you be dreaming or remembering? Subject(s): Dancing & Dancers | |||
Suppose that in my poem you shall find A wave so thrilled and lifted by the wind, By him to her own sweeter motion moved, And in that motion so with rapture loved, That all the sounding round them of the sea Became the music of their unity, And warm light fell across them from the west, And warm love from the beating in her breast Touched him, but clasped him not, nor gave him rest . . . When in your slender veins its verses sing, Will you be dreaming or remembering? | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...FAMED DANCER DIES OF PHOSPHORUS POISONING by RICHARD HOWARD ROSE AND MURRAY by CONRAD AIKEN A DANCER'S LIFE by DONALD JUSTICE DANCING WITH THE DOG by SUSAN KENNEDY SONG FROM A COUNTRY FAIR by LEONIE ADAMS |
