TRANSFIGURATION: 3, by SERGEY ALEXANDROVICH YESENIN Poem Explanation First Line: Eh, russians, / fowlers of the universe Last Line: The stars. Alternate Author Name(s): Yesenin, Sergei | |||
Eh, Russians, Fowlers of the universe. You who trailed heaven with the net of dawn, Lift your trumpets! Beneath the plow of storm The dumb earth roars. Golden-tusked, the colter breaks The cliffs. A new sower Roams the fields. New seeds He casts into the furrows. A guest of light drives toward us In a coach. Across the clouds A mare races. The breech-band on the mare: The blue; The bells on the breech-band: The stars. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...HOPES, PAINTED by SERGEY ALEXANDROVICH YESENIN DROVES by SERGEY ALEXANDROVICH YESENIN GOODBYE, MY FRIEND by SERGEY ALEXANDROVICH YESENIN WHERE A ROMAN VILLA STOOD, ABOVE FREIBURG' by MARY ELIZABETH COLERIDGE RECESSIONAL by RUDYARD KIPLING BEAUTIFUL MEALS by THOMAS STURGE MOORE A SONG OF LABOUR; DEDICATED TO MY FELLOW-WORKERS WITH PICK AND SHOVEL by ALEXANDER ANDERSON A DISAPPOINTMENT by JOANNA BAILLIE SIR RUPERT THE FEARLESS; A LEGEND OF GERMANY by RICHARD HARRIS BARHAM |
