TO-NIGHT by SARA TEASDALE

Poet Analysis

First Line: THE MOON IS A CURVING FLOWER OF GOLD
Last Line: TO-NIGHT FOR US.

The moon is a curving flower of gold,
The sky is still and blue;
The moon was made for the sky to hold,
And I for you.

The moon is a flower without a stem,
The sky is luminous;
Eternity was made for them,
To-night for us.
