STORMS by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES

Poet Analysis

First Line: SHE FEARS NOT ME
Last Line: BACK TO MY BREAST.
Subject(s): LOVE - COMPLAINTS; STORMS; WORSHIP;
She fears not me --
Neither my thunder,
Nor my lightning, startles her
To make surrender.

But when my friend
In Heaven makes thunder,
Her spirit breaks, and turns
To fear and wonder.

Lightning and thunder,
Give her no rest:
Bring her head back again,
Back to my breast.
