AIR, by ANTOINETTE DU LIGIER DE LA GARDE DESHOULIERES Poem Explanation First Line: Pleasant springtide brings to birth Last Line: As many loves as flowers are. | |||
PLEASANT springtide brings to birth As many loves as flowers are. Youthful hearts, beware! beware! Soon as it renews the earth, Cold it scatters everywhere. But its pleasures, sweet and rare, Oft cost more than they be worth. Youthful hearts, beware! beware! Pleasant springtide brings to birth As many loves as flowers are. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE COTTON CLUB by CLARENCE MAJOR BUCOLIC COMEDY: KING COPHETUA AND THE BEGGAR MAID by EDITH SITWELL KEATS; SONNET by HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW MILTON; SONNET by HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW HUGH SELWYN MAUBERLEY: 7.
