FESTE'S SONG (1), FR. TWELFTH NIGHT, by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: O mistress mine, where are you roaming? Last Line: Youth's stuff will not endure. Subject(s): Carpe Diem; Holidays; Love; Valentine's Day; Youth | |||
O mistress mine, where are you roaming? Oh, stay and hear; your true love's coming, That can sing both high and low. Trip no further, pretty sweeting; Journeys end in lovers meeting, Every wise man's son doth know. What is love? 'Tis not hereafter; Present mirth hath present laughter' What's to come is still unsure. In delay there lies no plenty, Then come kiss me, sweet and twenty; Youth's stuff will not endure. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...BETWEEN THE WARS by ROBERT HASS THE GOLDEN SHOVEL by TERRANCE HAYES ALONG WITH YOUTH by ERNEST HEMINGWAY THE BLACK RIVIERA by MARK JARMAN AIRY NOTHINGS.
