DISCOVER ME AGAIN by JEAN STARR UNTERMEYER

Poet Analysis

Last Line: At the hail of your love
Subject(s): RELATIONSHIPS;
DISCOVER me again-
Look at me with new eyes, O my beloved!
See, my aspect changes to the need of love,
Even as the stable earth answers the call of the seasons.

Do not regard me only as a winter-wife,
A peddler of homely comforts.
Indeed I am also your girl of spring-
Dreams possess and inhabit me.

But these lie sick and languid;
They quicken to the call of life,
Only at the recognition of your glance,
At the hail of your love.
