ALL HEAVEN IS BLAZING YET, by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI Poet Analysis Poet's Biography Last Line: O hope deferred, hope still Alternate Author Name(s): Alleyne, Ellen; Rossetti, Christina Subject(s): Heaven; Indecision; Hope | ||||||||
All heaven is blazing yet With the meridian sun: Make haste, unshadowing sun, make haste to set; O lifeless life, have done. I choose what once I chose; What once I willed, I will; Only the heart its own bereavement knows; O clamorous heart, lie still. That which I chose, I choose; That which I willed, I will; That which I once refused, I still refuse: O hope deferred, be still. That which I chose and choose And will is Jesusfb!'!' Will: He hath not lost his life who seems to lose: O hope deferred, hope still. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...HOPE IS NOT FOR THE WISE by ROBINSON JEFFERS SONNET by JAMES WELDON JOHNSON SPRING FLOODS by MAURICE BARING SONNET: 9.
