Golden Glories
Christina Rossetti
1830 to 1894
The buttercup is like a golden cup,
The marigold is like a golden frill,
The daisy with a golden eye looks up,
And golden spreads the flag beside the rill,
And gay and golden nods the daffodil,
The gorsey common swells a golden sea,
The cowslip hangs a head of golden tips,
And golden drips the honey which the bee
Sucks from sweet hearts of flowers and stores and sips.
Christina Rossetti's Golden Glories
I am busy working to bring Christina Rossetti's "Golden Glories" 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 Christina Rossetti's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "Golden Glories" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
