WHERE SHE IS NOW, by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES Poet Analysis First Line: Where she is now, I cannot say Last Line: But shadows of her lovely hair. Alternate Author Name(s): Davies, W. H. | ||||||||
Where she is now, I cannot say -- The world has many a place of light; Perhaps the sun's eyelashes dance On hers, to give them both delight. Or does she sit in some green shade, And then the air that lies above Can with a hundred pale blue eyes Look through the leaves and find my love. Perhaps she dreams of life with me, Her cheek upon her finger-tips; O that I could leap forward now, Behind her back and, with my lips, Break through those curls above her nape, That hover close and lightly there; To prove if they are substance, or But shadows of her lovely hair. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A CHILD'S PET by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES A MOTHER TO HER SICK CHILD by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES A STRANGE MEETING by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES A THOUGHT by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES ADVICE by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES APRIL'S LAMBS by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES BIRD AND BROOK by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES COWSLIPS AND LARKS by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES DAYS TOO SHORT by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES EARLY MORN by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES |
