ADVENTURE, by WILLIAM ALEXANDER PERCY 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. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...MORNING SONG by KARLE WILSON BAKER THE WHARF ON THAMES-SIDE: WINTER DAWN by LAURENCE BINYON POEM BEFORE BREAKFAST by TED KOOSER I'VE BEEN ASLEEP by PHILIP LEVINE SPRNG DAY: BREAKFAST TABLE by AMY LOWELL THE WAYSIDE STATION by EDWIN MUIR OVERTONES by WILLIAM ALEXANDER PERCY |
