THE ADORED ONE: 1 (TO HER OF THE MANY FILMS), by JAMES OPPENHEIM Poet's Biography First Line: Your smile is very sweet: yet it baffles me Last Line: Much am I baffled! Subject(s): Actors & Actresses; Women | ||||||||
YOUR smile is very sweet: yet it baffles me: Your brown eyes are large and clear: yet the woman who peers through them is mysterious. Though your talk flows in melody, winged with thought, Though you seem so young, yet so quaintly wise, You are deep, you are subtle, girl-faced woman! Dove and serpent, is it? Much am I baffled! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ARISTOTLE TO PHYLLIS by JOHN HOLLANDER A WOMAN'S DELUSION by SUSAN HOWE JULIA TUTWILER STATE PRISON FOR WOMEN by ANDREW HUDGINS THE WOMEN ON CYTHAERON by ROBINSON JEFFERS TOMORROW by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD LADIES FOR DINNER, SAIPAN by KENNETH KOCH GOODBYE TO TOLERANCE by DENISE LEVERTOV |
