You brought up poetry.
We'll sing you this other poem that I set to music.
This wonderful poem by this guy Henry Timrod, who I guess was the poet lord of the Civil War.
It's called The Stream Is Flowing From the West.

_ [F] The stream is flowing [Eb] from the west, _ _ _ like it's pouring [Bb] down from the sky. _
_ And it whirs upon its breast, _
[Eb] _ as the sun [F] sets golden.
_ [G] _
_ _ [Gm] _ _ [Eb] _ Rolling [Gm] onward towards the stream, _ _ [Eb] _ it's flowing [F] out towards you.
_ _ I dip my hands [Bb] beneath [Eb] the waves, _ _ so [Bb]
impressionless and cold.
_ _ _ Watching with [Eb] my lips, _ [Bb] _ I wave my forehead [F] in the gulf. _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] And it's just [Gm] a passing thought, but sweet.
_ [Eb] Maybe those [F] waves touch your feet. _

_ But I leave [Eb] no trace behind, _ _ for as [Bb] little on this stream _ _ is [Dm] on your [Eb] heart and [Bb]
mind.
_ The word was [F] the simpler dream.
_ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ [Eb] To win that warm [Gm] wild love of _ yours, [Eb] or make the water [F] whisper.
_ _ _ You streamed some moons by [Eb] swags and _ plains. _
For again [Bb] I crossed your tide. _ _
Then perhaps a [Eb] feeling's change _ _ will drag me to [F] her [G] side.
_ [F] _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] To love with all my [Gm] spirit's scope, _ [Eb] _ I'd do [F] everything but hope.
