MICHIGAN, YOU ARE SO LOVELY, by FRANCES MARVEL GNASS First Line: Michigan, you are so lovely Last Line: Cradle us in a piney breeze. Subject(s): Michigan | ||||||||
Michigan, you are so lovely With your changing scenes. You bring us joy and beauty To weave into our dreams. Michigan, you are so lovely When the year is new, A rhapsody in springtime With violets peeking through. Then you bring us summer With lakes of liquid blue. Daisies beside the wild rose Drenched in morning dew. When the grain is gathered And the moon hangs low, You are like a gypsy In the firelight's afterglow. Michigan, you are so lovely When the frost is on the trees. You cover us with an ermine blanket, Cradle us in a piney breeze. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...MICHIGAN SUMMER by THOMAS DEL VECCHIO NORTHERN MICHIGAN by JAMES HARRISON MICHIGAN SAND DUNES (A HOKKU) by HARRIET A.
