I HAVE SMALL, BLUE FLOWERS, by PAUL FORT First Line: I have small, blue flowers, I have small, blue flowers, clearer than Last Line: On the road, my love, everywhere on the road. Subject(s): Flowers; Hearts; Love | ||||||||
I have small, blue flowers, I have small, blue flowers, clearer than your eyes. -- Then on your love bestow one! -- They are mine, they belong to no one. High on the mountain's crest, my love, high on the mountain's crest. I have carbuncles, I have carbuncles, more vivid than your mouth. -- Then on your love bestow one! -- They are mine, they belong to no one. Under the ashes at home, my love, under the ashes at home. I have found a heart, I have found two hearts, I have found a thousand hearts. - - Show them to me! -- I have found love, it belongs to all the world. Everywhere on the road, my love, everywhere on the road. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE INVENTION OF LOVE by MATTHEA HARVEY TWO VIEWS OF BUSON by ROBERT HASS A LOVE FOR FOUR VOICES: HOMAGE TO FRANZ JOSEPH HAYDN by ANTHONY HECHT AN OFFERING FOR PATRICIA by ANTHONY HECHT LATE AFTERNOON: THE ONSLAUGHT OF LOVE by ANTHONY HECHT A SWEETENING ALL AROUND ME AS IT FALLS by JANE HIRSHFIELD A PORTFOLIO OF SKETCHES: THE LITTLE ANNUITANT by PAUL FORT |
