DREAMS, by VIRGINIA TAYLOR MCCORMICK Poet's Biography First Line: On a hill, facing heaven, I have prayed alone Last Line: I would be in the valley, with four walls and you. Subject(s): Dreams; Heaven; Nightmares; Paradise | |||
On a hill, facing heaven, I have prayed alone; Stripped me bare of desire, laid my soul prone; On a hill, near to God, praying silently, I have dreamed Raphael, Jesus, Mary. This on a hilltop, facing heaven's door; Now in the valley dreams come no more. Heaven's door is lovely; Jesus, Raphael, too; I would be in the valley, with four walls and you. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE END OF LIFE by PHILIP JAMES BAILEY SEVEN TWILIGHTS: 6 by CONRAD AIKEN THE BOOK OF THE DEAD MAN (#19): 2.
