Life's Tragedy Poem by Paul Laurence Dunbar

Now this is lovely! ! ! !

Let the poet take my pleasure and praise; his notes are high and logical. This poem, especially the first stanza, is a masterpiece of the month for me! ! !

and I don`t understand why so low votes. namely I put 10, because I think it`s a real poem, but not boring, just need to get the idea the author tried to deliver. i think he took farer about falling short. for sometimes 2+2 is not 4. in life it goes bit different way than in mathematics. bright and memorable work!

The greatest tragedy is not to fall short of perfection but not to try for it. Should it not be: 'And by a half-tone lose the key.'

master piece of the month, for me and to me!

I said these words once and I say it now again: The poem evokes a sense of melancholy and reflects on the fragility of human experiences. Dunbar uses evocative language to emphasize the tragic nature of human existence.. Finest poem of Dunbar
