IN OLDEN DAYS, by XAVIER DE MAGALLON Poet's Biography First Line: In olden days, your youth and the dawn together Last Line: Over the sad hills, now it comes alone! Subject(s): Youth | ||||||||
In olden days, your youth and the dawn together Sought the rising sun, And the sun and you, in the fresh, sonorous weather, Were two companions venturing as one. Still my window rises in the crystal hours When the reviving day assumes its throne; But as I look upon it, how the morning lowers Over the sad hills, now it comes alone! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...BETWEEN THE WARS by ROBERT HASS THE GOLDEN SHOVEL by TERRANCE HAYES ALONG WITH YOUTH by ERNEST HEMINGWAY |
