SPRINGTIME by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON

Poet Analysis

First Line: AGAIN IT IS THE VIBRANT MAY
Last Line: FIND INCOMPLETE THE DAY, AND LONG.
Subject(s): SPRING;

Again it is the vibrant May,
The bursting buds, the leafing trees,
The fragrant, undulating breeze,
Call to my heart in subtlest way:
Come! Come! it is a holiday.

The streamlet with unending song,
Beneath its silver veil of mist
Seems flowing, flowing, to some tryst,
While I—with inner surges strong,
Find incomplete the day, and long.
