NEW SPRING: 7, by HEINRICH HEINE Poet's Biography First Line: With the rose the butterfly's deep in love Last Line: The star of eve and butterfly. Subject(s): Butterflies; Insects; Bugs | ||||||||
WITH the rose the butterfly's deep in love, A thousand times hovering round; But round himself, all tender like gold, The sun's sweet ray is hovering found. With whom is the rose herself in love? An answer I'd fain receive. Is it the singing nightingale? Is it the silent star of eve? I know not with whom the rose is in love, But every one love I: The rose, the nightingale, sun's sweet ray, The star of eve and butterfly. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE EXHAUSTED BUG; FOR MY FATHER by ROBERT BLY PLASTIC BEATITUDE by LAURE-ANNE BOSSELAAR BEETLE LIGHT; FOR DANIEL HILLEN by MADELINE DEFREES CLEMATIS MONTANA by MADELINE DEFREES THOMAS MERTON AND THE WINTER MARSH by NORMAN DUBIE |
