Poem on sorrow


O CAPTAIN! MY CAPTAIN! ~BY WALT WHITMAN
Our fearful trip is done,
The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won,

ALAS, IT WAS JUST A DEMON ~BY MAVIS MUPFIGO
The daily anticipation,
The ever-lingering hope,
The hope of meeting him,
Like a child, yearning a mother’s embrace,
Waiting for just that moment,
Alas!! It was just a demon.
