THE SPRING IS HERE (2), by LOUISE CHANDLER MOULTON Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: I feel the kindness of the lengthening days Last Line: I'll warm me at the strong fires of the sun. Alternate Author Name(s): Chandler, Ellen Louise Subject(s): Spring | ||||||||
I FEEL the kindness of the lengthening days -- I warm me at the strong fire of the sun -- I know the year's glad course is well begun -- Ah, what awaits me in its devious ways? What strange, new bliss shall thrill me with amaze? What prize shall I rejoice that I have won? I feel the kindness of the lengthening days -- I warm me at the strong fire of the sun. Yet I behold the phantom that dismays -- The face of Grief that spares not any one -- Rewards come not until the task is done, And there are minor chords in all earth's lays; -- Nay! Trust the kindness of the lengthening days -- I'll warm me at the strong fires of the sun. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SPRING LEMONADE by TONY HOAGLAND A SPRING SONG by LYMAN WHITNEY ALLEN SPRING'S RETURN by GEORGE LAWRENCE ANDREWS ODE TO SPRING by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD ODE TO SPRING by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD SPRING FLOODS by MAURICE BARING SPRING IN WINTER by CHARLOTTE FISKE BATES SPRING ON THE PRAIRIE by HERBERT BATES THE FARMER'S BOY: SPRING by ROBERT BLOOMFIELD A PAINTED FAN by LOUISE CHANDLER MOULTON |
