BROAD GOLD, by ANNA ADREYEVNA GORENKO Poem Explanation Poet Analysis Poet's Biography Alternate Author Name(s): Akhmatova, Anna | |||
Broad gold, the evening colors glow, The April air is cool and tender. You should have come ten years ago, And yet in welcome I surrender. Come here, sit closer in our nook, And turn gay eyes at what my nurses Might never glimpse: the blue-bound book That holds my awkward childish verses. Forgive me that I did not look Sunward with joy, but dwelt with sorrow, Forgive me all whom I mistook For you, oblivious of the morrow. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...CONFESSION (1) by ANNA ADREYEVNA GORENKO COURAGE by ANNA ADREYEVNA GORENKO I SAID TO THE CUCKOO: 'TILL I DIE' by ANNA ADREYEVNA GORENKO LIKE A WHITE STONE by ANNA ADREYEVNA GORENKO NO, NO, I DID NOT LOVE YOU - GLADLY by ANNA ADREYEVNA GORENKO PRAYER (1) by ANNA ADREYEVNA GORENKO THE SUMMER GARDEN by ANNA ADREYEVNA GORENKO THIS RUSSIAN SOIL by ANNA ADREYEVNA GORENKO NURSING HOME: THE CANARY by KAREN SWENSON |
