TO A MAN, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: Like sea-foam dancing in the upward swing
Last Line: The sea-foam stayed, and the waves disappeared


Like sea-foam dancing in the upward swing
Of whirling waves that heave against each other
Your silken thoughts tremble upward
Upon the tumbling passion of your life,
And die.
But when you bent, inviting a flower
To grace a corner of your mind,
The sea-foam stayed, and the waves disappeared
