QUATRAIN: AMONG THE PINES by THOMAS BAILEY ALDRICH

Poem Explanation Poet Analysis

First Line: FAINT MURMURS FROM THE PINE-TOPS REACH MY EAR
Last Line: LET THE SOFT SOUTH WIND WAFT ITS MUSIC HERE.
Subject(s): PINE TREES;

FAINT murmurs from the pine-tops reach my ear,
As if a harp-string -- touched in some far sphere --
Vibrating in the lucid atmosphere,
Let the soft south wind waft its music here.
