LOVE'S CALENDAR: AUGUST, by MAX DAUTHENDEY First Line: We walked beside the nimble brook Last Line: And thought of you long after you had passed. Subject(s): August | ||||||||
We walked beside the nimble brook and kept its pace, so swift and strong; the waving willows cast us a look and the bluebells pleaded to come along. But too hot was your heaving breast, for blue flowers far too hot, every bluebell stayed shut fast, with cool eyes in that still spot, and thought of you long after you had passed. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...MIDSUMMER LETTER by DONALD HALL LATE AUGUST by PHYLLIS MCGINLEY THE LAST DAY OF AUGUST by NAOMI SHIHAB NYE AUGUST MOONRISE by SARA TEASDALE MIDSUMMER NIGHT by SARA TEASDALE THE FRUITS OF THE SEASON by JAMES WRIGHT THE SHEPHEARDES CALENDER: AUGUST by EDMUND SPENSER DEEP IN THE NOSEGAY by MAX DAUTHENDEY |
