SUNSHINE by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI

Poet Analysis

First Line: THERE'S LITTLE SUNSHINE IN MY HEART
Last Line: YOU, GUESS.
Subject(s): HEARTS; SUN;

"There's little sunshine in my heart
Slack to spring, lead to sink;
There's little sunshine in the world
I think." --

"There's glow of sunshine in my heart
(Cool wind, cool the glow);
There's flood of sunshine in the world
I know." --

Now if of these one spoke the truth,
One spoke more or less:
But which was which I will not tell; --
You, guess.
