 | The Collected Poetry of Paul Laurence Dunbar : |  |
Old
I have seen peoples come and goAlike the Ocean's ebb and flow;
I have seen kingdoms rise and fall
Like springtime shadows on a wall.
I have seen houses rendered great
That grew from life's debased estate,
And all, all, all is change I see,
So, dearest God, take me, take me.
