SONG, by BARBARA CLAWSON First Line: O lord, how beautiful it is! Last Line: Is it not sweet to be alive! Subject(s): Love; Singing & Singers; Songs | |||
O Lord, how beautiful it is! How beautiful to be alive! How sweet the bud of blooming trees; How sweet the bees, how sweet the hive! Here on the dewy grass I lie, Sweet grass that also beds my love, And watch with him the stars that move Across the blue and tender sky. O sweet love, speak! O sweet stars, fall! Into a sea of bliss I dive. O love, is not life beautiful, Is it not sweet to be alive! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE APOLLO TRIO by CONRAD AIKEN BAD GIRL SINGING by MARK JARMAN CHAMBER MUSIC: 4 by JAMES JOYCE CHAMBER MUSIC: 5 by JAMES JOYCE CHAMBER MUSIC: 28 by JAMES JOYCE THE SONG OF THE NIGHTINGALE IS LIKE THE SCENT OF SYRINGA by MINA LOY ON THE SALE OF MY FARM by ROBERT FROST |
