Poetry Analysis Help!!!!?

I need help doing a poetry analysis on The Invitation by Percy Shelley.....


Best and brightest, come away,


Fairer far than this fair day,


Which, like thee, to those in sorrow


Comes to bid a sweet good-morrow


To the rough year just awake


In its cradle on the brake.


The brightest hour of unborn Spring


Through the Winter wandering,


Found, it seems, the halcyon morn


To hoar February born;


Bending from Heaven, in azure mirth,


It kissed the forehead of the earth,


And smiled upon the silent sea,


And bade the frozen streams be free,


And waked to music all their fountains,


And breathed upon the frozen mountains,


And like a prophetess of May


Strewed flowers upon the barren way,


Making the wintry world appear


Like one on whom thou smilest, dear.





Away, away, from men and towns,


To the wild wood and the downs -


To the silent wilderness


Where the soul need not repress


Its music, lest it should not find


An echo in another's mind,


While the touch of Nature's art


Harmonizes heart to heart.





Radiant Sister of the Day


Awake! arise! and come away!


To the wild woods and the plains,


To the pools where winter rains


Image all their roof of leaves,


Where the pine its garland weaves


Of sapless green, and ivy dun,


Round stems that never kiss the sun,


Where the lawns and pastures be


And the sandhills of the sea,


Where the melting hoar-frost wets


The daisy-star that never sets,


And wind-flowers and violets


Which yet join not scent to hue


Crown the pale year weak and new;


When the night is left behind


In the deep east, dim and blind,


And the blue noon is over us,


And the multitudinous


Billows murmur at our feet,


Where the earth and ocean meet,


And all things seem only one


In the universal Sun.
