SPRING, by HARRIET DAYTON BELL First Line: The willows' celadon aigrets Last Line: That spring's an antic life! Subject(s): Happiness; Joy; Delight | |||
The willows' celadon aigrets And the robin bantlings warn Snails to erect antenna -- So the carnival be on! Bambino swallows dartle On gracile, facile wing: The world's again a'startle To the rigmarole of Spring. The air resounds with chit-chat, For revelry is rife; And we smile, as we remember That Spring's an antic life! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE STUDY OF HAPPINESS by KENNETH KOCH SO MUCH HAPPINESS by NAOMI SHIHAB NYE CROWD CONDITIONS by JOHN ASHBERY I WILL NOT BE CLAIMED by MARVIN BELL THE BOOK OF THE DEAD MAN (#21): 1.
