Days and Dreams - Madison J Cawein - Bog

Bag om Days and Dreams

Days and Dreams is a classic collection of poetry by the American poet Madison J. Cawein that includes the following exerpt: To the lover who is loser? Has she felt: --the mere revealing Of the passion 's his accuser; She conceals it; the concealing Is her own love's self-abuser. Madison Julius Cawein was a poet from Louisville, Kentucky. Madison Julius Cawein was born in Louisville, Kentucky on March 23, 1865, the fifth child of William and Christiana (Stelsly) Cawein. His father made patent medicines from herbs. Thus as a child, Cawein became acquainted with and developed a love for local nature. After graduating from high school, Cawein worked in a pool hall in Louisville as a cashier in Waddill's New-market, which also served as a gambling house. He worked there for six years, saving his pay so he could return home to write. His output was thirty-six books and 1,500 poems. His writing presented Kentucky scenes in a language echoing Percy Bysshe Shelley and John Keats. He soon earned the nickname the "Keats of Kentucky". He was popular enough that, by 1900, he told the Louisville Courier-Journal that his income from publishing poetry in magazines amounted to about $100 a month.
