A CORONAL, by WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: New books of poetry will be written Last Line: Many and many a time. Subject(s): Books; Reading | |||
New books of poetry will be written New books and unheard of manuscripts will come wrapped in brown paper and many and many a time the postman will bow and sidle down the leaf-plastered steps thumbing over other men's business. But we ran ahead of it all. One coming after could have seen her footprints in the wet and followed us among the stark chestnuts. Anemones sprang where she pressed and cresses stood green in the slender source -- And new books of poetry will be written, leather-colored oakleaves many and many a time. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...TWO SONNETS: 1 by DAVID LEHMAN THE ILLUSTRATION?ÇÖA FOOTNOTE by DENISE LEVERTOV FALLING ASLEEP OVER THE AENEID by ROBERT LOWELL POETRY MACHINES by CATE MARVIN LENDING LIBRARY by PHYLLIS MCGINLEY A CELEBRATION by WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS |
