What is the meaning of last stanza in poem stars written by sara teasdale
Answers
Answer:
Stars" by Sara Teasdale is a charming poem that doesn't seem to want to express anything more than the beauty of the stars on a clear summer's night. Describing them with such simple yet vivid metaphors as "Myriads with beating / Hearts of fire," the speaker seems to be completely in awe of them.
At times, the language suggests that the speaker sees observing the stars as some kind of religious experience. For example, they describe how the starts are climbing "Up the dome of heaven." In this context, the stars are not only a higher force but the highest force, keeping perfectly still and never tiring as they march towards heaven.
The poem ends,
And I know that I
Am honored to be
Witness
Of so much majesty.
Alone on the hill, the reader gets the feeling that the speaker—like a priest or nun—is ready to dedicate their life to this "heaven full of stars."
