APRIL'S DREAM, by WILLIAM STANLEY BRAITHWAITE Poet's Biography First Line: The stream's breath tastes of the wood's perfume Last Line: Forth, into april's dream. Subject(s): April | ||||||||
THE stream's breath tastes of the wood's perfume, Filled are the woods with foam: And the sea like a sheet 'neath the summer noon, With the languorous swerve runs home. The beat of a pulse the warm sun stirs In the air, the sea and stream, Beckons the heart- and the soul allures Forth, into April's dream. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...FOR CITY SPRING by STEPHEN VINCENT BENET ESSAY ON STONE by HAYDEN CARRUTH APRIL NOT AN INVENTORY BUT A BLIZZARD by ALICE NOTLEY APRIL ONE by ALICIA SUSKIN OSTRIKER APRIL by WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS MEMORY OF APRIL by WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS APRIL MORTALITY by LEONIE ADAMS SCINTILLA by WILLIAM STANLEY BRAITHWAITE |
