DROVES, by SERGEY ALEXANDROVICH YESENIN Poem Explanation First Line: Upon green hills in droves the horses graze Alternate Author Name(s): Yesenin, Sergei | |||
Upon green hills wild droves of horses blow The golden bloom off of the days that go. From the high hillocks to the blue-ing bay Falls the sheer pitch of heavy manes that sway. They toss their heads above the still lagoon Caught with a silver bridle by the moon. Snorting in fear of their own shadow, they, To screen it with their manes, await the day. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...TRANSFIGURATION: 3 by SERGEY ALEXANDROVICH YESENIN HOPES, PAINTED by SERGEY ALEXANDROVICH YESENIN GOODBYE, MY FRIEND by SERGEY ALEXANDROVICH YESENIN A MINUET OF MOZART'S by SARA TEASDALE FIRST OR LAST (SONG) by THOMAS HARDY IMITATIONS OF HORACE: ODE IV, 1 by ALEXANDER POPE THREE THINGS by JOSEPH AUSLANDER INVITATION by MATILDA BARBARA BETHAM-EDWARDS ACHRONOS by EDMUND CHARLES BLUNDEN THE RICH YOUNG RULER QUESTIONS by WILLIAM E.
