WHO CARES FOR EARTHLY BREAD THO WHITE?, by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI Poet Analysis Poet's Biography Last Line: And bid you meet me there again Alternate Author Name(s): Alleyne, Ellen; Rossetti, Christina Subject(s): Relationships | |||
Who cares for earthly bread tho' white? Nay, heavenly sheaf of harvest corn! Who cares for earthly crown to-night? Nay, heavenly crown to-morrow morn! I will not wander left or right. The straightest road is shortest too; And since we hold all hope in view And triumph where is no more pain. To-night I bid good night to you And bid you meet me there again. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...AMERICAN WEDDING by ESSEX HEMPHILL PUNK HALF PANTHER by JUAN FELIPE HERRERA LET US GATHER IN A FLOURISHING WAY by JUAN FELIPE HERRERA THE DIFFERENCE by RICHARD HOWARD THE ADVANCE OF THE FATHER by FANNY HOWE IT IS FINISHED' by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI ITALIA, IO TI SALUTO!' by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI THE HEART KNOWETH ITS OWN BITTERNESS' (2) by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI |
