CLAY OF SAND, by RUDOLPH N. HILL Poet's Biography First Line: Clay that was fashioned of sand Last Line: Lo, I shall wander at will! | |||
Clay that was fashioned of sand, Ripple-marked by the long years; Let me but hold, love, your hand; I shall forget all my fears. What though the Pale Singer come, Putting cold lips to my ear; Through with the bugle and drum, May I not quite gladly hear? Out of this palace of dust Let the wind blow, and be still! One with the tongues that are hushed, Lo, I shall wander at will! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SAN ANTONIO MEMORIES by RUDOLPH N.
