In this poem, the poet discusses things that are shining
and why she loves them. All of the first examples are form nature, such as the moon,
stars, sun, glow-worms, butterflies, and a cat’s eyes. The next examples are man-made,
including beads and candles. The theme is that we need to find and enjoy beauty around
us. The poem ends with the line, “The beauty of all shining things is yours and mine/It
was a lovely thought of God to make things shine.” The implication
for theme is that we should enjoy the world and each other.
