WHITE MAGIC, by BERTON BRALEY Poet's Biography First Line: All the things that call a man to the road's delight Last Line: By the long white road. Subject(s): Comfort; Silence | ||||||||
All the things that call a man to the road's delight, All the magic wonder thingsshine forth white! These are the glamours Thrilling the roamers, White sails bellying And milk-white combers; A snow-white glory Where the forefoot lunges, And a white, white wake Where the white gull plunges. Or the long white road That is never ended Where the sun's white light And the dust are blended; Mountains that shimmer With their white peaks rearing, And death white deserts With their hot sands searing; But my love's round arms That softly fold me Make fair white magic And so they hold me To a quiet comfort And a warm abode In a snug white cottage By the long white road. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A SONG OF SILENCE by LOUISA SARAH BEVINGTON TANKA DIARY (9) by HARRYETTE MULLEN 7 A.M., A MAN AND A WOMAN by LAURE-ANNE BOSSELAAR THIS MORNING, GOD by LAURE-ANNE BOSSELAAR |
