Walkers With The Dawn

Langston Hughes

Being walkers with the dawn and morning,
Walkers with the sun and morning,
We are not afraid of night,
Nor days of gloom,
Nor darkness--
Being walkers with the sun and morning.

Go to Heaven for the climate, Hell for the company.

Poems of the Day
  • Edna St. Vincent Millay
    Afternoon On A Hill
    by Edna St. Vincent Millay
    I will be the gladdest thing Under the sun! I will touch a hundred flowers And not pick one. I will look at cliffs and clouds With quiet eyes, Watch the wind bow down the grass, And the grass rise.
