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.
I am busy working to bring Alan Seeger's "Resurgam" to life through some unique musical arrangements and will have a full analysis of the poem here for you later.
In the meantime, I invite you to explore the poem's themes, structure, and meaning. You can also check out the gallery for other musical arrangements or learn more about Alan Seeger's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "Resurgam" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
