ADVENTURE, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Who would not love to go
Last Line: Taking, you fail.
Subject(s): Adventure And Adventurers; Morning


Who would not love to go
Out where the breakers blow,
Curling and green and slow,
With a rose sail?
Lands there are far away,
Marvelous in the spray,
Turquoise by night, by day
Gold as the grail.
Morning's the time to start
Just with a tipsy heart.
Wisdom a tiny part
Taking, you fail.
