The meaning of the poem is, "Life has loveliness to sell." Basically, life may seem terrible at times, however, there are always things in life that are good. that is what I took away from it. You will have your own opinion.

She presents "loveliness" as something life wants to "sell" us, and she catalogs some examples of the loveliness that life has in stock. From "blue waves whitened on a cliff," to the "scent of pine trees in the rain," Teasdale gives us a bunch of very sensory examples (we can see, hear, smell, what she describes) in the first two stanzas
