Spinster Analysis

The Collected Poems1956Now this particular girl

During a ceremonious april walk

With her latest suitor

Found herself, of a sudden, intolerably struck

By the birds' irregular babel

And the leaves' litter.By this tumult afflicted, she

Observed her lover's gestures unbalance the air,

His gait stray uneven

Through a rank wilderness of fern and flower;

She judged petals in disarray,

The whole season, sloven.How she longed for winter then! --

Scrupulously austere in its order

Of white and black

Ice and rock; each sentiment within border,

And heart's frosty discipline

Exact as a snowflake.But here -- a burgeoning

Unruly enough to pitch her five queenly wits

Into vulgar motley --

A treason not to be borne; let idiots

Reel giddy in bedlam spring:

She withdrew neatly.And round her house she set

Such a barricade of barb and check

Against mutinous weather

As no mere insurgent man could hope to break

With curse, fist, threat

Or love, either.

.: analysis :.

This poem is about a girl who is being courted by a man during the spring. He is taking her out on a regular walk, as she realizes how much she dislikes the season spring as opposed to winter. She dislikes spring because it is unorderly, unlike winter being clear-cut black and white. She realizes she does not want to be with the man, or outside in the spring weather, so she leaves. When she reaches her home, she barricades it, and shuts herself in. Love is parallel to spring because it is unorderly and unorganized. The man also represents the season because she is scared to fall in love. Her heart is like her home. She protects it from the weather, as she protects it from falling in love with the man.
