THE FRIENDLY WOOD, by PAUL VALERY Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Meditations pure were ours Last Line: O my companion of silence dear! Subject(s): Relationships | |||
Meditations pure were ours Side by side, along the ways; We held each other's hand without Speaking, among the hidden flowers. Alone we walked as if betrothed, Lost in the green night of the fields; We shared this fruit of fairy reels, The moon, to madmen well disposed. And then, we were dead upon the moss, Far, quite alone, among the soft Shades of this intimate, murmuring wood; And there, in the vast light aloft, We found ourselves with many a tear, O my companion of silence dear! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...AMERICAN WEDDING by ESSEX HEMPHILL PUNK HALF PANTHER by JUAN FELIPE HERRERA LET US GATHER IN A FLOURISHING WAY by JUAN FELIPE HERRERA THE DIFFERENCE by RICHARD HOWARD THE ADVANCE OF THE FATHER by FANNY HOWE |
