FATI VALET HORA BENIGNI, by SAMUEL BISHOP Poet's Biography First Line: In myriad swarms, each summer sun Last Line: When all those hours -- are play. Subject(s): Play; Summer | |||
IN myriad swarms, each summer sun An insect nation shows; Whose being, since he rose begun, And e'er he sets will close. Brief is their date, confin'd their powers, The fluttering of a day; -- Yet life's worth living, e'en for hours, When all those hours -- are play. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE ADVANCE OF SUMMER by MARY KINZIE THE SUMMER IMAGE by LEONIE ADAMS CANOEBIAL BLISS by JOSEPH ASHBY-STERRY THE END OF SUMMER by HENRY MEADE BLAND THE FARMER'S BOY: SUMMER by ROBERT BLOOMFIELD SONNET: 14.
