The Unexplorer
Edna St. Vincent Millay
1892 to 1950
There was a road ran past our house
Too lovely to explore.
I asked my mother once—she said
That if you followed where it led
It brought you to the milk-man's door.
(That's why I have not travelled more.)
Edna St. Vincent Millay's The Unexplorer
I am busy working to bring Edna St. Vincent Millay's "The Unexplorer" 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 Edna St. Vincent Millay's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "The Unexplorer" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
