Poem by James Weldon Johnson

Voluptas

    To chase a never-reached mirage
    Across the hot, white sand,
    And choke and die, while gazing on
    Its green and watered strand.

1. The Color Sergeant
2. Answer to Prayer
3. Down by the Carib Sea. 1. Sunrise in the Tropics
4. Down by the Carib Sea. 6. Sunset in the Tropics
5. Down by the Carib Sea. 4. The Lottery Girl
