EARLY SPRING, by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES Poet Analysis First Line: How sweet this morning air in spring Last Line: Sing sweeter songs than I may borrow. Alternate Author Name(s): Davies, W. H. Subject(s): Spring | ||||||||
How sweet this morning air in spring, When tender is the grass, and wet! I see some little leaves have not Outgrown their curly childhood yet; And cows no longer hurry home, However sweet a voice cries 'Come.' Here, with green Nature all around, While that fine bird the skylark sings; Who now in such a passion is, He flies by it, and not his wings; And many a blackbird, thrush and sparrow Sing sweeter songs than I may borrow. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SPRING LEMONADE by TONY HOAGLAND A SPRING SONG by LYMAN WHITNEY ALLEN SPRING'S RETURN by GEORGE LAWRENCE ANDREWS ODE TO SPRING by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD ODE TO SPRING by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD SPRING FLOODS by MAURICE BARING SPRING IN WINTER by CHARLOTTE FISKE BATES SPRING ON THE PRAIRIE by HERBERT BATES THE FARMER'S BOY: SPRING by ROBERT BLOOMFIELD A BIRD'S ANGER by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES |
