COMPARISON, by MARY THOMASINE DOWNER First Line: It's spring now! Last Line: And that one may have a heaven here below. Subject(s): Love; Spring | ||||||||
It's spring now! And I love it more this year than I did last, Because The sun and showers say You are coming Before another month has passed. Last year Spring was spring; that was all, A pretty thing to greet. But now it means that God let fall A bit of Paradise Right at my feet. I did not have you then, And that is why I did not know That the blue above is not the only sky, And that one may have a Heaven here below. | 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 SAVORING THE PAST by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON |
