IN THE CLEAR COLD, by SERGEY ALEXANDROVICH YESENIN Poem Explanation First Line: In the clear cold the dales grow blue and tremble Last Line: In their white waters washes his blue toes. Alternate Author Name(s): Yesenin, Sergei Subject(s): Cold; Winter | ||||||||
In the clear cold the dales grow blue and tremble; The iron hoofs beat sharply, knock on knock. The faded grasses in wide skirts assemble Flung copper where the wind-blown branches rock. From empty straths, a slender arch ascending: Fog curls upon the air and, moss-wise, grows, And evening, low above the wan streams bending, In their white waters washes his blue toes. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LOOKING EAST IN THE WINTER by JOHN HOLLANDER WINTER DISTANCES by FANNY HOWE WINTER FORECAST by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN AT WINTER'S EDGE by JUDY JORDAN CHAMBER MUSIC: 34 by JAMES JOYCE TRANSFIGURATION: 3 by SERGEY ALEXANDROVICH YESENIN |
