Anterotics Poem by William Ernest Henley

I love the skill of the poet for this exquisite landscape and the action taking place there on. But I can't find merit in his observation 'nurses troop to breakfast.... Handsome, ugly, all are women'. It is not fair to describe nurses on superfluous parameters.

I love the personification: the April morn laughs through his window. Light pushes the shadows away and is happy doing it. The west is playing hide n seek. Trochaic tetrameter in form (stressed, unstressed x four) . O spring! I can’t wait for spring to return either as winter is upon us.

Loud and cheerful clangs the bell. Here the nurses troop to breakfast. Handsome, ugly, all are women... O, the Spring-the Spring-the Spring very good poem. tony

My take on this. A mom is at a maternity hospital gave birth to the baby narrating the story. The dogs and birds are just to give the ambience of nomalcy. The dogs are coming for morsels thrown out by nurses on a feeding break. They are being chased away playing hide abd seek. Bell for food break clangs and the nurses go back to work. My critism is that there is no such as an ugly nurse. In white they are all beautiful

Well articuated and nicely brought forth. A beautiful creation...

Loud and cheerful clangs the bell. Here the nurses troop to breakfast. Handsome, ugly, all are women... O, the Spring-the Spring-the Spring! /// expression within anti-!

Loved the great imageries drawn in words, particularly the following: 'And a shaft of sunshine pushes Thro' the shadows in the square'. The poem gets 5 stars***** from me.

Hide-and-sick ways of nature! ! ! ! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
