TWO SONGS AFTER HEARING THE WAGNER STORY-BOOK: 2, by HILDA CONKLING Poet's Biography First Line: Siegfried, hear us! / give us back the ring!' Last Line: And he is gone. | ||||||||
"Siegfried, hear us! Give us back the ring!" The lady with the shell, The water-lady with the green hair, Laughed in the sun And went into the woods laughing: He was happy in his heart, And he had golden hair Till the sun loved him! "Siegfried!" But he will not hear me. He could talk to birds and rivers, And he is gone. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LITTLE SNAIL by HILDA CONKLING A THING FORGOTTEN by HILDA CONKLING ABOUT MY DREAMS by HILDA CONKLING BIRD OF PARADISE by HILDA CONKLING BUTTERFLY (1) by HILDA CONKLING |
