AN EASTERN BALLAD, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: I speak of love that comes to mind:
Subject(s): Love


I speak of love that comes to mind:
The moon is faithful, although blind;
She moves in thought she cannot speak.
Perfect care has made her bleak.
I never dreamed the sea so deep,
The earth so dark; so long my sleep,
I have become another child.
I wake to see the world go wild.
