ROSE, by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES Poet Analysis First Line: Sweet margaret's laugh can make Last Line: While still the sun is high. Alternate Author Name(s): Davies, W. H. | ||||||||
Sweet Margaret's laugh can make Her whole plump body shake. Jane's cherry lips can show Their white stones in a row. A soft June smile steals out Of Mary's April pout. Sweet creatures swim and play In Maud's blue pools all day. But when Rose walks abroad, Jane, Margaret, Mary, Maud, Do stand as little chance To throw a lovely glance, As the Moon that's in the sky While still the Sun is high. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A CHILD'S PET by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES A MOTHER TO HER SICK CHILD by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES A STRANGE MEETING by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES A THOUGHT by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES ADVICE by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES APRIL'S LAMBS by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES BIRD AND BROOK by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES COWSLIPS AND LARKS by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES DAYS TOO SHORT by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES EARLY MORN by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES |
