WINTER, by SARA TEASDALE Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: I shall have winter now and lessening days Last Line: And make my life of what I can remember. Alternate Author Name(s): Filsinger, Ernest B., Mrs. Subject(s): Winter | |||
I shall have winter now and lessening days, Lit by a smoky sun with slanting rays, And after falling leaves, the first determined frost. The colors of the world will all be lost. So be it; the faint buzzing of the snow Will fill the empty boughs, And after sleet storms I shall wake to see A glittering glassy plume of every tree. Nothing shall tempt me from my fire-lit house. And I shall find at night a friendly ember And make my life of what I can remember. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LOOKING EAST IN THE WINTER by JOHN HOLLANDER WINTER DISTANCES by FANNY HOWE WINTER FORECAST by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN AT WINTER'S EDGE by JUDY JORDAN CHAMBER MUSIC: 34 by JAMES JOYCE |
