TIDAL BASIN AT TWILIGHT, by MARY B. OWEN First Line: Over the waves the sea gulls wheeling Last Line: Come to me soon -- come soon. Subject(s): Evening; Sea Gulls; Shrines; Sunset; Twilight | |||
Over the waves the sea gulls wheeling, Over the land the shadows stealing; Low in the sky, cold, unrevealing, Rides the pale crescent moon. Ever to you my thoughts are turning, Always for you my heart is yearning, And at your shrine a flame is burning; Come to me soon -- come soon. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...JOURNEY INTO THE EYE by DAVID LEHMAN FEBRUARY EVENING IN NEW YORK by DENISE LEVERTOV THE HOUSE OF DUST: 1 by CONRAD AIKEN TWILIGHT COMES by HAYDEN CARRUTH IN THE EVENINGS by LUCILLE CLIFTON NINETEEN FORTY by NORMAN DUBIE JASPER by DONALD (GRADY) DAVIDSON |
