WHEN JUNE IS COME by ROBERT SEYMOUR BRIDGES

Poet Analysis

First Line: WHEN JUNE IS COME, THEN ALL THE DAY
Last Line: OH, LIFE IS DELIGHT WHEN JUNE IS COME.
Subject(s): JUNE;
WHEN June is come, then all the day
I'll sit with my love in the scented hay:
And watch the sunshot palaces high,
That the white clouds build in the breezy sky.

She singeth, and I do make her a song,
And read sweet poems the whole day long:
Unseen as we lie in our hay-built home.
Oh, life is delight when June is come.
