CHAMBER MUSIC: 1, by JAMES JOYCE Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Strings in the earth and air Last Line: Upon an instrument. Subject(s): Music & Musicians; Rivers | ||||||||
Strings in the earth and air Make music sweet: Strings by the river where The willows meet. There's music along the river, For Love wanders there, Pale flowers on his mantle, Dark leaves on his hair. All softly playing With head to the music bent, And fingers straying Upon an instrument. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...RIVERS INTO SEAS by LYNDA HULL TO A WOMAN GLANCING UP FROM THE RIVER by LARRY LEVIS TWO-RIVER LEDGER by KHALED MATTAWA HE FINDS THE MANSION by JAMES MCMICHAEL THE RIVERS by CLARIBEL ALEGRIA VERMILION FLYCATCHER, SAN PEDRO RIVER, ARIZONA by MARGARET ATWOOD THE PORCH OVER THE RIVER by WENDELL BERRY THE RIVER BRIDGED AND FORGOT by WENDELL BERRY CHAMBER MUSIC: 7 by JAMES JOYCE A MEMORY OF THE PLAYERS IN A MIRROR AT MIDNIGHT by JAMES JOYCE |
