MOONLIGHT, by MARGUERITE ATTERBURY First Line: The moon's a spectre pirate ship Last Line: They've silvered all the trees. Subject(s): Moon | |||
THE moon's a spectre pirate ship Upon an inky sea; A shred of mist her tattered flag, The clouds her canvas be; And ducats, silver ducats, A myriad shower of these! She's thrown them o'er to light the craft; They've silvered all the trees. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...POEM TO TAKE BACK THE NIGHT by JUNE JORDAN THE MOON AND THE SPECTATOR by LEONIE ADAMS FULL MOON by KARLE WILSON BAKER NO MORE OF THE MOON by MORRIS GILBERT BISHOP THE DEPARTURE by DENISE LEVERTOV THE MOON IN GREECE by TIMOTHY LIU THE MENTAL TRAVELLER by WILLIAM BLAKE |
