Days
Philip Arthur Larkin
1922 to 1985
What are days for?
Days are where we live
They come, they wake us
Time and time over
They are to be happy in
Where can we live but days?
Ah, solving that question
Brings the priest and the doctor
In their long coats
Running over the fields.
Philip Arthur Larkin's Days
I am busy working to bring Philip Arthur Larkin's "Days" to life through some unique musical arrangements and will have a full analysis of the poem here for you later.
In the meantime, I invite you to explore the poem's themes, structure, and meaning. You can also check out the gallery for other musical arrangements or learn more about Philip Arthur Larkin's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "Days" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
