Explore "Vashti" by James Weldon Johnson on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
I sometimes take you in my dreams to a far-off land I used to know, / Back in the ages long ago; a land of palms and languid streams.
A land, by night, of jeweled skies, by day, of shores that glistened bright, / Within whose arms, outstretched and white, a sapphire sea lay crescent-wise.
