"The Widow's Lament in Springtime"

William's poem, "The Widow's Lament in Springtime," is a very sorrowful poem discussing a widow's grief due to her husband's passing.  In the first line, sorrow is compared to her yard.  The widow looks out at her yard and all the beauty, but it just makes her think about her husband.  "With the cold fire that closes around me this year."  The cold fire describes the sadness that is surrounding the women this springtime.  "...but the grief in my heart is stronger that they."  In this line, the lady is saying that the grief in her heart is stronger than the beauty outside.  All the flowers and bushes remind her of her husband, and it just brings her grief.  "I feel that I would like to go there and fall into those flowers and sink into the marsh near them."  I think that this line means that the widow just wants to go peacefully to Heaven and be with her husband.  This poem was beautifully written, however it was very sorrowful and gloomy. :(
