VERNAL EQUINOX, by AMY LOWELL Poet Analysis Poet's Biography
First Line: The scent of hyacinths, like a pale mist, lies
Subject(s): Spring
First Line: The scent of hyacinths, like a pale mist, lies
Subject(s): Spring
The scent of hyacinths, like a pale mist, lies
between me and my book;
And the South Wind, washing through the room,
Makes the candles quiver.
My nerves sting at a spatter of rain on the shutter,
And I am uneasy with the thrusting of green shoots
Outside, in the night.
Why are you not here to overpower me with your
tense and urgent love?
