Poem by Alan Seeger

Resurgam

Exiled afar from youth and happy love,
 If Death should ravish my fond spirit hence
I have no doubt but, like a homing dove,
 It would return to its dear residence,
And through a thousand stars find out the road
Back into earthly flesh that was its loved abode.

1. Thirty Sonnets. 10. Sonnet 10. A splendor, flamelike, born to be pursued
2. Thirty Sonnets. 12. Sonnet 12. Like as a dryad, from her native bole
3. Thirty Sonnets. 26. The Old Lowe House, Staten Island
4. Thirty Sonnets. 13. Sonnet 13. I fancied, while you stood conversing there
5. The Bayadere
