FAIRY SONG, by ETHEL MAY ERICSON First Line: Passing on a breeze, I swept Last Line: To lighten spring's returning. Subject(s): Spring | ||||||||
PASSING on a breeze, I swept Through the portals of a bud, Twas all hushed withinI crept, Guided by a perfume's flood, Through a dark rose gloom, To a tiny room. There I found a chanting sprite Before a many-candled shrine, Singing, "Flower-to-be! Swing light Your petal gatesthe sun must shine, And set our candles burning, To lighten Spring's returning. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SPRING LEMONADE by TONY HOAGLAND A SPRING SONG by LYMAN WHITNEY ALLEN SPRING'S RETURN by GEORGE LAWRENCE ANDREWS ODE TO SPRING by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD ODE TO SPRING by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD SPRING FLOODS by MAURICE BARING SPRING IN WINTER by CHARLOTTE FISKE BATES SPRING ON THE PRAIRIE by HERBERT BATES THE FARMER'S BOY: SPRING by ROBERT BLOOMFIELD CHAMBER MUSIC: 14 by JAMES JOYCE |
