Analysis and comments on Bells Of Gray Crystal by Dame Edith Sitwell

Comment 1 of 1, added on July 21st, 2006 at 11:19 AM.

Another beautiful poem. Very simply written and the visuals are stunning. The crystal bells are delicate, fleeting. The swan's breath. Shadows of two people as chinese towers, and the reference of the Chinese geese--double images that reinerate the "foreign" nature of things. The poet makes herself a part of this poem with the pronoun I.
