TOUCHE, by RUTH STEWART SCHENLEY First Line: Your little cat is soft and warm Last Line: And slams the door! Subject(s): Home | ||||||||
Your little cat is soft and warm, Your babe is dearer still; I envy you your tiny house With roses and a hill. I'd like to have that willow ware, Those what-nots tucked in nooks; And stay at lovely home all day And read from novel books. I wouldn't want to be you, though, Not now -- nor evermore And have a husband who comes home at night And slams the door! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...EL FLORIDA ROOM by RICHARD BLANCO DESTINATIONS by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN TO THIS HOUSE by ROBINSON JEFFERS THE UPSTAIRS ROOM by WELDON KEES HOME IS SO SAD by PHILIP LARKIN DUTCH INTERIOR by DAVID LEHMAN MY ENGLISH TEACHER COMES TO THEE by RUTH STEWART SCHENLEY |
