UNSEEN, by MIRIAM VEDDER First Line: Some spring, for every lover Last Line: And all lost loveliness? Subject(s): Wellesley College | ||||||||
SOME spring, for every lover, Must hedges flower unseen And brown and red wings hover And fields have back their green; The wild azalea brighten A hillside for the bees And clouds of fragrance whiten The black-boughed cherry trees. Grain must again grow yellow As harvests come and pass, And apples, warm and mellow, Lie in the orchard grass. But will he know, who slumbers Where come no dreams to bless, With all forgotten summers And all lost loveliness? | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LINES WRITTEN TO A TRANSLATOR OF GREEK POETRY by MARGARET STEELE ANDERSON THE LESSER BEAUTY by MARGARET STEELE ANDERSON WORK by MARGARET STEELE ANDERSON IN MEMORY: MISS JEWETT by GRACE ALLERTON ANDREWS HERE ENTER NOT by KATHARINE CANBY BALDERSTON I CLEANED MY HOUSE TODAY by KATHARINE CANBY BALDERSTON |
