A narrow Fellow in the Grass (16 apr 1865 anni – 31 magg 1865 anni)

Descrizione:

“He likes a Boggy Acre -
A Floor too cool for Corn -
But when a Boy and Barefoot
I more than once at Noon

Have passed I thought a Whip Lash
Unbraiding in the Sun
When stooping to secure it
It wrinkled And was gone -”

The poem seems to discuss Lincoln himself regarding both his early life as a simple country boy and the suddenness of his death. Other sections of the poem seem to describe how united the nation became after his death.(narrow Fellow= Tall and skinny Abe Lincoln)
