Classic and Contemporary Poetry

SONG (8) by ALFRED TENNYSON

Poet Analysis

First Line: WHO CAN SAY
Last Line: THE CAUSE IS NOWHERE FOUND IN RHYME.
WHO can say
Why To-day
To-morrow will be yesterday?
Who can tell
Why to smell
The violet recalls the dewy prime
Of youth and buried time?
The cause is nowhere found in rhyme.
