A NARROW WINDOW, by FLORENCE EARLE COATES First Line: A narrow window may let in the light Last Line: A word—ah, it may be a word of life! | |||
A narrow window may let in the light, A tiny star dispel the gloom of night, A little deed a mighty wrong set right. A rose, abloom, may make a desert fair; A single cloud may darken all the air; A spark may kindle ruin and despair. A smile and there may be an end to strife; A look of love, and Hate may sheathe the knife; A word—ah, it may be a word of life! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...AN ADIEU by FLORENCE EARLE COATES BUFFALO by FLORENCE EARLE COATES BY THE CONEMAUGH by FLORENCE EARLE COATES CAPTAIN GUYNEMER by FLORENCE EARLE COATES COLUMBUS by FLORENCE EARLE COATES CRADLE SONG by FLORENCE EARLE COATES DEATH by FLORENCE EARLE COATES DREYFUS by FLORENCE EARLE COATES EDMUND CLARENCE STEADMAN by FLORENCE EARLE COATES HELEN KELLER WITH A ROSE by FLORENCE EARLE COATES IN WAR-TIME (AN AMERICAN HOMEWARD-BOUND) by FLORENCE EARLE COATES |
