NEW SPRING: 35, by HEINRICH HEINE Poet's Biography First Line: Care not, if my love I'm telling Last Line: But believes them poetry. Subject(s): Beauty; Flowers; Love | ||||||||
CARE not, if my love I'm telling Unto all the world around, When my mouth, thy beauty praising, Full of metaphor is found. Anderneath a wood of flowers Lies, in shelter safe below, All that deep and glowing secret, All that deep and secret glow. If suspicious sparks should issue From the roses, -- fearless be! This dull world in flames believes not, But believes them poetry. | 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 |
