47. Shameless Adoration (Various Poets Page II) But who would count eternity in days? These old bones live to learn her wanton ways (I measure time by how a body sways). theodore roethke http://www.geocities.com/Paris/5289/yasmeen.html

SHAMELESS ADORATION She Walks In Beauty by Lord Byron To Amarantha, That She Would Dishevel Her Hair by Richard Lovelace She Was A Phantom Of Delight by William Wordsworth I Knew A Woman by Theodore Roetke Credits "This page is shamelessly dedicated to the shock of beauty that is Yasmeen Ghauri. I imagine as these men wrote such odes to the grace and appeal of woman, they could easily have been enchanted by one with features as striking as hers." Vincent SHE WALKS IN BEAUTY She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies; And all that`s best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes: Thus mellowed to that tender light Which Heaven to gaudy day denies. One shade the more, one ray the less, Had half impaired the nameless grace Which waves in every raven tress, Or softly lightens o`er her face; Where thoughts serenely sweet express How pure, how dear their dwelling-place. And on that cheek, and o`er that brow, So soft, so calm, yet eloquent, The smiles that win, the tints that glow, But tell of days in goodness spent, A mind at peace with all below, A heart whose love is innocent! LORD BYRON TO AMARANTHA, THAT SHE WOULD DISHEVEL HER HAIR

blog photos misc .net-work ... contact Search > Theodore Roethke's "I Knew a Woman" for Professor Eisenhower September 30, 1997 Theodore Roethke focuses on a single woman in this poem, as is obvious from the title. This is a woman that he puts on a pedestal, but his description makes this seemingly grandiose praise apropos. To appropriate this description, he uses alliteration and diction. Each of these two devices contribute to the overall image of and emotions about this woman that Roethke knew. One way he accentuates his feelings about this woman is the repetition of the letter "s" in the front and middle of words throughout the poem, often in key places. The letter "s" is a soft sounding letter, especially as the first letter of a word. When a string of "s" sounds are strung together, there is a sinuousness formed in the reader's mind. Here, it represents the woman's body and her movements: a smooth, flowing order of movements that catch Roethke's eyes, with a softness as her essence. There are about 40 strong "s" sounds in this 28 line poem, with the word "she" being mentioned almost a dozen times (and "her" mentioned as many, stressing the importance of the person). The placement of these words is strategic, emphasizing the natural sound and feel to the poem as well as the natural softness to her disposition. In the third stanza, this is most obvious: " S he played it quick

skip to main skip to sidebar One Poet's Notes Recommended Readings of Recent Contemporary Poetry and Poetics Saturday, June 16, 2007 Theodore Roethke: "My Papa's Waltz" Nevertheless, I find myself repeatedly rising to the defense of the parents in the poem, not so much for their specific actions or inactions, but because I believe we also need to read the piece within the context of its time frame. In the era this poem was authored, the late-1940s, readers would not have shared the same sensibilities about these issues that contemporary readers exhibit. Certainly, the definition of child abuse would not have been as broad as that expressed by my students, and a man returning home with whiskey on his breath after a day of work would not immediately raise great concern since it would not have been very unusual. The Sopranos reading of the poem. The whiskey on your breath Could make a small boy dizzy; But I hung on like death: Such waltzing was not easy.

I feel my fate in what I cannot fear. I learn by going where I have to go. We think by feeling. What is there to know? I hear my being dance from ear to ear. I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. Of those so close beside me, which are you? God bless the Ground! I shall walk softly there, And learn by going where I have to go. Light takes the Tree; but who can tell us how? The lowly worm climbs up a winding stair; I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. Great Nature has another thing to do To you and me; so take the lively air, And, lovely, learn by going where to go. This shaking keeps me steady. I should know. What falls away is always. And is near. I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. I learn by going where I have to go.

Z Search All Criticism: Printable Version Download PDF Cite this Page Theodore Roethke 1908–1963 (Full name Theodore Huebner Roethke) American poet, critic, essayist, and author of children's books. INTRODUCTION Roethke is among the most celebrated American poets of the twentieth century. His poetry employs dynamic, descriptive imagery to convey the process of self-realization and discovery. The concrete language of Roethke's poetry serves to present his personal themes as archetypal experiences, resulting in a highly original, symbolic body of work charged with semantic associations that must be intuitively comprehended by the reader. According to Rosemary Sullivan, Roethke's poetry conveys "his sensitivity to the subliminal, irrational world of nature; his relationship to his dead father, who occupies the center of his work…; his attempts to explore other modes of consciousness which carried him to the edge of psychic disaster…; his interest in mysticism…; his debts, so well repaid, to the poetic ancestors from whom he learned his craft; and the calm joyousness which rests at the core of his work." Biographical Information Roethke was born in Saginaw, Michigan, to first generation German-American parents who operated a large floral greenhouse and produce business. He worked in his parents' greenhouse and attended Arthur Hill High School. Roethke began writing verse during his undergraduate years at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, though he did not submit poems for publication until he began pursuing a master's degree in literature, first at Michigan and then at Harvard. The Great Depression cut short Roethke's studies, as he was forced to withdraw from school to find a job. For four years—until 1935—he taught at Lafayette, a small college in Pennsylvania, where he was a popular teacher and hard drinker. During his time at Lafayette, Roethke began friendships with the poets Rolfe Humphries, Louise Bogan, and Stanley Kunitz and published nineteen poems in such magazines as
