GRENSTONE, by WITTER BYNNER Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Is there such a place as grenstone?' Last Line: Celia, shall we care? Alternate Author Name(s): Morgan, Emanuel | |||
"Is there such a place as Grenstone?" Celia, hear them ask! -- Tell me, shall we share it with them? Shall we let them breathe and bask On the windy, sunny pasture, Where the hill-top turns its face Toward the valley of the mountain, Our beloved place? Shall we show them through our churchyard, With its crumbling wall Set between the dead and living? Shall our willowed waterfall, Blueberries and pines and bluebirds, Be a secret we shall share? . . . If they make but little of it, Celia, shall we care? | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A DANCE FOR RAIN (AT COCHITI, NEW MEXICO) by WITTER BYNNER A FARMER REMEMBERS LINCOLN by WITTER BYNNER A MOCKING-BIRD by WITTER BYNNER A THRUSH IN THE MONLIGHT by WITTER BYNNER AS TO MOONLIGHT by WITTER BYNNER CHINESE DRAWINGS: A PHILOSOPHER by WITTER BYNNER CHINESE PROCESSION by WITTER BYNNER |
