I realized June had never beenjust a monthmusic...never just a trembleon my lipswarmth was nevermerely a blanket.

About This Quote

The speaker in this poem is talking about how he became aware that June had never been just a month. He realized that the month of June wasn’t just any month of the year. It had an amazing amount of power. He realized that June always turned into July, and the force of the month built itself up until it was ready to explode.

This is an example of how he came to understand that each day has a special quality to it. His first wedding anniversary had the same power as July, but it was one day closer to being over.
