THE RETURN OF THE LEAVES, by WILLIAM ALEXANDER PERCY Poet's Biography First Line: Leaves and the sweet-choired blue Last Line: Fled, with all but its pain. Subject(s): Hearts; Leaves; Pain; Youth; Suffering; Misery | ||||||||
Leaves and the sweet-choired blue; And my heart set free again. Leaves, leaves and the dew; Free, but not free from pain. The laughter of June is shed; And my heart gives heed again. But, ah, for youth that is fled, Fled, with all but its pain. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...PARTHENOPHIL AND PARTHENOPHE: MADRIGAL 14 by BARNABE BARNES SONNETS IN SHADOWS: 1 by ARLO BATES IN PRAISE OF PAIN by HEATHER MCHUGH THE SYMPATIZERS by JOSEPHINE MILES LEEK STREET by LAURE-ANNE BOSSELAAR OVERTONES by WILLIAM ALEXANDER PERCY |
