GOING, by LAURA E. THOMPSON First Line: One must leave while his heart is aglow Last Line: Till the grave has no need of a tear. | |||
One must leave while his heart is aglow, While life is full to the overflow And arms ache to hold him here; And one waits long for his turn to go, Till his eyes grow dim and his thoughts run slow, Till the grave has no need of a tear. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...DEATH'S JEST-BOOK: SIBYLLA'S DIRGE by THOMAS LOVELL BEDDOES CITIZEN OF THE WORLD by ALFRED JOYCE KILMER TO CERTAIN POETS by ALFRED JOYCE KILMER AN OLD WOMAN (2) by MOTHER GOOSE THE MASTER by EDWIN ARLINGTON ROBINSON PROUD MAISIE, FR.
