SCARLETT'S SONG, by NORA (CHESSON) HOPPER Poet's Biography First Line: Sing a song of scarlet poppies in the corn | |||
SING a song of scarlet Poppies in the corn: Sing a song of rosy Blossoms on the thorn . Sing a song of Robin Chirping all the day When the nests are empty And the skies gray." Sing a song of scarlet Hips upon the briar: Sing a song of dead boughs Reddening on the fire. Sing a song of red suns, Frost, and tingling blood: Sing a song of Autumn Flushing the wood. Sing a song of Scarlett When the frusts begin Heaping on the camp - fire Store of prickly whin. Sing a song of Marian Laughing through the wood, Sing a song of roses - And Robin Hood. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest... |
