THE BUNGLER by AMY LOWELL

Poet Analysis

First Line: YOU GLOW IN MY HEART
Last Line: Against the tables and chairs
Subject(s): CLUMSINESS;

You glow in my heart
Like the flames of uncontrolled candles.
But when I go to warm my hands,
My clumsiness overturns the light,
and then I stumble
Against the tables and chairs.
