A MUSICAL, by PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR Poet's Biography First Line: Outside the rain upon the street Last Line: It sang in ecstasy. Subject(s): Music & Musicians | ||||||||
OUTSIDE the rain upon the street, The sky all grim of hue, Inside, the music-painful sweet, And yet I heard but you. As is a thrilling violin, So is your voice to me, And still above the other strains, It sang in ecstasy. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LINER NOTES TO AN IMAGINARY PLAYLIST by TERRANCE HAYES VARIATIONS: 13 by CONRAD AIKEN BELIEVE, BELIEVE by BOB KAUFMAN ROUND ABOUT MIDNIGHT by BOB KAUFMAN MUSIC by CHARLOTTE FISKE BATES THE POWER OF MUSIC by CHARLOTTE FISKE BATES A BANJO SONG by PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR |
