    need help with 2 poem anylasises

    if anyone could help me get the metaphorical or whatever meanings not the literal

    we should not mind so small a flower-
    except quiet bring
    our little garden that we lost
    back to the lawn again.

    so spicy her carnations and-
    so drunken, reel her Bees-
    so silver steal a hundred flutes
    from out a hundred trees-
    that whoso sees this little flower
    by faith my clear behold
    the bobolinks around the throne
    and dandelions gold.




    AND>>>>



    bring me the sunset in a cup,
    reckon the morinings flagon's up
    and say how many dew
    tell me how far the morning leaps-
    tell me what time the weacer sleeps
    who spun the breadths of blue!

    write me how many notes there be
    in the new robins extasy
    among astonished boughs-
    how many trips the tortoise makes-
    how many cups the bee partakes,
    the debauchee of dews!

    also, who laid the Rainbows piers,
    also, who leads the docile spheres
    by withes of supple blue?
    whose fingers string the stalactite-
    who counts the wampum of the night
    to see that none is due?

    who built this little alban house
    and shut the windows down so close
    my spirit cannot see?
    who'll
    let me out some gala say
    with implements to fly away,
    passing pomposity


    any help is muchhhhhh apreciated
    stupid stupid classsss

    here's a guess. i kinda agree with you about the spirit thing on the first one. the second one could be about 'escaping the body' but i think it's more on escaping in general. the persona is fighting to be free from something, and it's possible that what she's escapong from is life itself, so maybe suicide.

    hope this makes sense.

    p.s.
