NEW SPRING: 14, by HEINRICH HEINE Poet's Biography First Line: When thy dress doth gently touch me Last Line: That it scarce can follow thee. Subject(s): Hearts; Love | ||||||||
WHEN thy dress doth gently touch me, As thou pass'st before my face, How my heart exults, how wildly Follows it thy lovely trace! Then thou turnest round and gazest With thy large bright eyes on me, And my heart doth feel so startled, That it scarce can follow thee. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE INVENTION OF LOVE by MATTHEA HARVEY TWO VIEWS OF BUSON by ROBERT HASS A LOVE FOR FOUR VOICES: HOMAGE TO FRANZ JOSEPH HAYDN by ANTHONY HECHT AN OFFERING FOR PATRICIA by ANTHONY HECHT LATE AFTERNOON: THE ONSLAUGHT OF LOVE by ANTHONY HECHT A SWEETENING ALL AROUND ME AS IT FALLS by JANE HIRSHFIELD |
