A PROVEN FRIEND, by CHARLES LOUIS HENRY WAGNER First Line: A proven friend is like a gushing spring upon life's Last Line: Where love is in control. Subject(s): Friendship | |||
A proven friend is like a gushing spring upon Life's desert drear, Though the dead sands all-surround it, yet its waters fresh and clear Invigorate the soul; We forget the shifting, burning sands, the ceaseless grind, the fear, When we dip and drink from Friendship's cup the heaven of man seems near Where Love is in control. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...YOU & I BELONG IN THIS KITCHEN by JUAN FELIPE HERRERA JASON THE REAL by TONY HOAGLAND NO RESURRECTION by ROBINSON JEFFERS CHAMBER MUSIC: 17 by JAMES JOYCE CHAMBER MUSIC: 18 by JAMES JOYCE THE STONE TABLE by GALWAY KINNELL ALMSWOMAN by EDMUND CHARLES BLUNDEN TO AN ENEMY by MAXWELL BODENHEIM SONNET: 10.
