UPLANDS IN MAY by CARL SANDBURG

Poet Analysis

First Line: WONDER AS OF OLD THINGS
Last Line: THE GREAT STRONG HILLS ARE HUMBLE.
Subject(s): MOUNTAINS; HILLS; DOWNS (GREAT BRITAIN);
Wonder as of old things
Fresh and fair come back
Hangs over pasture and road.
Lush in the lowland grasses rise
And upland beckons to upland.
The great strong hills are humble.
