FINLAND, by ROBERT RANKE GRAVES Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Feet and faces tingle Last Line: And stamps to mark the tune. Subject(s): Finland | ||||||||
FEET and faces tingle In that frore land: Legs wobble and go wingle, You scarce can stand. The skies are jewelled all around, The ploughshare snaps in the iron ground, The Finn with face like paper And eyes like a lighted taper Hurls his rough rune At the wintry moon And stamps to mark the tune. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE CONQUEST OF FINLAND by JOHN GREENLEAF WHITTIER OUR LAND by JOHAN LUDVIG RUNEBERG COUNTING THE BEATS by ROBERT RANKE GRAVES DEAD COW FARM by ROBERT RANKE GRAVES GOLIATH AND DAVID by ROBERT RANKE GRAVES IN THE WILDERNESS by ROBERT RANKE GRAVES IT'S A QUEER TIME by ROBERT RANKE GRAVES |
