Apollo And The Graces Poem by John Keats

Apollo And The Graces

Rating: 3.0


APOLLO

WHICH of the fairest three
To-day will ride with me?
My steeds are all pawing at the threshold of the morn:
Which of the fairest three
To-day will ride with me
Across the gold Autumn's whole Kingdom of corn?

THE GRACES all answer

I will, I - I - I
young Apollo let me fly
Along with thee,
I will- I, I, I,
The many wonders see
I - I - I - I
And thy lyre shall never have a slackened string:
I, I, I, I,
Thro' the golden day will sing.

A very excessively emotional spirit must have written this poem. The lack of boundaries brings romanticism its charm nonetheless kitsch must be avoided. A profound theosophic approach is highly appealing.

And thy lyre shall never have a slackened string: ... Hair from horses's tail were used on a lyre in olden days... One of the poems on a lighter side. Very subtle.
