Solomon Crane Poems

I look upon the sky
In search of a star
I see comets fly
And stars shine
...

Into the sky
We shall fly
Like a flock of birds
Let us try
...

Though it has eluded me
I now can see
The secret of life
Is you and me
...

Once long ago was a group of slaves
Led to freedom by a man
Chosen by the Divine
Promised a new land
...

Your eyes shine brighter than a star
How I despise to be far
From the brilliance of your heart
And the beauty of your face
...

Once long ago
Was a man with quite the ego
One night an angel appeared
And said, 'Because of your sin
...

I feel it in the air
I see it in the blooms
The sun shining so fair
As the birds welcome it with song
...

As the majestic eagle soars
And the mighty lion roars
So too my heart
Yearns for you
...

I do not dream
Though if i did I'd dream of a stream
Though I do not dream
I dream of dreams
...

There was a beautiful woman
Her name was Lar
Filled even the stars with envy
Her radiance oh so brighter than a star
...
