THE LITTLE SAMPAGUITA
Natividad Marquez
Little Sampaguita
*this first line here is somewhat referring to a little girl
or the Sampaguita flower it self....
With the wondering eye,
*this line here is saying that the little girl has a wondering
eye or the Sampaguita flower is watching over something.
But i think that it is the little girl who has that wondering eye.
Did a tiny fairy
*the tiny fairy here is referring to the rain or rain drop(s).
Drop you where you lie?
*It seems that because of the rain, the little girl cannot go
outside and play so that made her stay at home and
just lie on her bed with a wondering eye.
*the same also if we say the Sampaguita flower. Because of
the rain, the flower fell to the ground. Drop where the
Sampaguita flower lie.
In the witching hour
*of course this one is obviously referring to a Night time.
Of a tropic night
*yes. Sampaguita is abundantly found in tropical countries like
Did a careless moonbeam
*a careless moonbeam is of course the light of the moon.
Leave you in it's flight?
*this means that tomorrow is another day. If the little girl
did not had the chance to play because it is raining, well,
night will sure to elapse and sunshine will burst full of hope.
*as for the Sampaguita flower, the moonbeam cannot do anything to
help the fallen flower and eventually, leaving the flower in the
ground. It's like a death of a flower and a birth of a flower the
next morning.
I have cited two analysis. A little girl and a Sampaguita flower.
As for the little girl, the poem is a story of an innocent
delicate kid who loves to play outside. On the other hand is
a Sampaguita flower that fell on the ground and since
that is a natural phenomenon, what can a moonbeam do?
Nothing. Nevertheless, a poem has no definite meaning
actually. It depends on how we understand it. Endless
analysis even on a 4 lined poem.
I hope that you find this one helpful.

THE SEA By Natividad Marquez Why does the sea laugh, Mother, As it glints beneath the sun? It is thinking of the joys, my child, That it wishes every one. Why does the sea sob so, Mother, As it breaks on the rocky shore? It recalls the sorrows of the world. And weeps forevermore. Why is the sea so peaceful, Mother, As if it were fast asleep? It would give our tired hearts, dearest child, The comfort of the deep.
