LOVE'S MORNING HOURS AND EVENTIDE, by OLIVER MURRAY EDWARDS First Line: When dawns the morn of love Last Line: At close of day. Subject(s): Hearts; Love | |||
When dawns the morn of Love In the blue sky above, Rises the sun; Birds sing a roundelay, Flowers bloom along the way Breathing of one. Sweet are the morning hours With dew upon the flowers While Fairies play: Love opens wide the door, Passing the threshold o'er Upon his way. As rides the sun on high Circling the dome of sky, Shadows appear; Advancing without sound, Lengthen upon the ground When night is near. And when it sinks to rest, E'en as birds seek their nest Light fades away; Where Love doth still abide, Sweet is the eventide At close of day. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE INVENTION OF LOVE by MATTHEA HARVEY TWO VIEWS OF BUSON by ROBERT HASS A LOVE FOR FOUR VOICES: HOMAGE TO FRANZ JOSEPH HAYDN by ANTHONY HECHT AN OFFERING FOR PATRICIA by ANTHONY HECHT LATE AFTERNOON: THE ONSLAUGHT OF LOVE by ANTHONY HECHT A SWEETENING ALL AROUND ME AS IT FALLS by JANE HIRSHFIELD A CHRISTMAS CAROL AND ANTHEM by OLIVER MURRAY EDWARDS |
