THEME IN YELLOW, by CARL SANDBURG Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: I spot the hills Last Line: I am fooling. Subject(s): Pumpkins | |||
I SPOT the hills With yellow balls in autumn. I light the prairie cornfields Orange and tawny gold clusters And I am called pumpkins. On the last of October When dusk is fallen Children join hands And circle round me Singing ghost songs And love to the harvest moon; I am a jack-o'-lantern With terrible teeth And the children know I am fooling. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE PUMPKIN PIE, OR REASSURANCES ARE ALWAYS FALSE; THOUGH WE LOVE THEM by DIANE WAKOSKI THE PUMPKIN TREE by ROBERT WRIGLEY THE STRANGER IN THE PUMPKIN by JOHN CIARDI WHAT BRINGS US OUT by NAOMI SHIHAB NYE THE PUMPKIN by JOHN GREENLEAF WHITTIER STOCK AND VERMONT PUNKINS by DANIEL LEAVENS CADY VERMONT FALL FEED by DANIEL LEAVENS CADY PART OF AUTUMN by MARIE EMILIE GILCHRIST |
