CROSSING A CREEK, by HERBERT CLARK JOHNSON First Line: He who has rolled his pants up to his knee Last Line: Against his body, even in his dreams. | |||
He who has rolled his pants up to his knee And walked a lowland creek from bank to bank Has mixed his pulse with that of land and sea. And though, in after days, he cross his streams By bridge or log, he'll always feel its beat Against his body, even in his dreams. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ON CALVARY'S LONELY HILL by HERBERT CLARK JOHNSON WILLOW BEND AND WEEP by HERBERT CLARK JOHNSON A SONG [OF DIVINE LOVE] by RICHARD CRASHAW THE ADOPTED CHILD by FELICIA DOROTHEA HEMANS BIRTHDAY OF DANIEL WEBSTER by OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES LOST ART by THOMAS BAILEY ALDRICH IN ENVY OF COWS by JOSEPH AUSLANDER MY DEAREST WIFE by WILLIAM BARNES EMANCIPATION IN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, APRIL 16, 1862 by JAMES MADISON BELL |
