SING-SONG; A NURSERY RHYME BOOK: 83 by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI

Poet Analysis

First Line: BLIND FROM MY BIRTH
Last Line: WHERE ALL JOY-BELLS ARE RINGING.
Subject(s): BIRDS; BLINDNESS; HAPPINESS; LARKS; VISUALLY HANDICAPPED; JOY; DELIGHT; SKYLARKS;
Blind from my birth,
Where flowers are springing
I sit on earth
All dark.
Hark! hark!
A lark is singing,
His notes are all for me,
For me his mirth: --
Till some day I shall see
Beautiful flowers
And birds in bowers
Where all joy-bells are ringing.
