how has the poet compared a railway journey to the journey of life
Such a beautiful poem full of the enthusiasm for and the wonder at a train ride! ! ! I wished he could have lived unto the age of flight- -I can only imagine what a majestic poem he would have written about that! ! !
Whatever be the the kind of train described in the poem, the focus remains on the thrill of its speed and beauty of a changing landscape during its journey. Enjoyed reading it. I quote: - Let the goal be far, the flight be fleet! While the Earth slips from our feet!
Whatever we experience on earth it is ephemeral. We indeed carry the Heaves with us. good write
the way he write, thats the way of writing i have been fantasized for all this past years... the rythem is so fantastic. so nice.
It is a pretty idea in the poem makes it beautiful.
We will rush ever on without fear; Let the goal be far, the flight be fleet! For we carry the Heavens with us, dear, While the Earth slips from our feet! ..........so touching and impressive.. A beautiful poem with haunting expression is amazingly shared.
