PLACES: 2. FULL MOON (SANTA BARBARA), by SARA TEASDALE Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: I listened, there was not a sound to hear Last Line: Tracing in crystal the slow way he came. Alternate Author Name(s): Filsinger, Ernest B., Mrs. Subject(s): Moon; Pacific Ocean; Santa Barbara, California | |||
I listened, there was not a sound to hear In the great rain of moonlight pouring down, The eucalyptus trees were carved in silver, And a light mist of silver lulled the town. I saw far off the grey Pacific bearing A broad white disk of flame, And on the garden-walk a snail beside me Tracing in crystal the slow way he came. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SANTA BARBARA by FRANCIS FISHER BROWNE SANTA BARBARA BEACH by FREDERICK RIDGELY TORRENCE SANTA BARBARA by AMELIA WOODWARD TRUESDELL TRANSUBSTANTIATION by JAN LEE ANDE SONG AT THE WINEPRESSES by KENNETH REXROTH JOURNEY'S END, SANTA BARBARA by CAROL LEE SANCHEZ NOTES FROM CENTRAL CALIFORNIA; SANTA BARBARA by CAROL LEE SANCHEZ I HAVE SEEN THE SPRING' by SARA TEASDALE |
