YOUNG LOVELINESS, by LOUISE AYRES GARNETT First Line: Her delicate form scarce dimples in the bed Last Line: Expends itself to die. Subject(s): Beauty | |||
Her delicate form scarce dimples in the bed Where she all night has lain. She is as frail and fragrant as a flower After an April rain. I wish I had not pictured her a flower -- A flower is but a sigh Of wonderment at beauty that so soon Expends itself to die. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...VARIATIONS: 14 by CONRAD AIKEN DIVINELY SUPERFLUOUS BEAUTY by ROBINSON JEFFERS THE BEAUTY OF THINGS by ROBINSON JEFFERS HOPE IS NOT FOR THE WISE by ROBINSON JEFFERS LIFE FROM THE LIFELESS by ROBINSON JEFFERS REARMAMENT by ROBINSON JEFFERS SHANE ONEILLS CAIRN by ROBINSON JEFFERS BALLAD OF THE DOORSTONE by LOUISE AYRES GARNETT |
