END OF MARCH, by ANNETTE WYNNE First Line: What does the white world know Last Line: The world begins all over again! Subject(s): March (month); Snow; Winter | ||||||||
WHAT does the white world know Of flowers eager to grow Under the snow? Do the brown limbs care As they swing in the crisp clear air? But O, little seed, you know, Lying patiently so Head underground, Only waitthe call will go round, You'll know the sound. And O, the snow must go, For you, little seed, are waiting to grow! O, the joy to lift the head Straight above the dark brown bed, O, the joy to feel the tread Of spring with skipping bare brave feet, Down the warm, wet village street. Ah, then the brown branches care And try to touch her hair; Streaming out in the new warm air, And O, the sky is glad, and every brook and glen For then, The world begins all over again! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LOOKING EAST IN THE WINTER by JOHN HOLLANDER WINTER DISTANCES by FANNY HOWE WINTER FORECAST by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN AT WINTER'S EDGE by JUDY JORDAN CHAMBER MUSIC: 34 by JAMES JOYCE CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS by ANNETTE WYNNE |
