AT MIDNIGHT, by KURT HEYNICKE Poet's Biography First Line: Your love is a white doe Last Line: Above the altar of your reverent soul. | |||
Your love is a white doe that flees into the midnight of my desire, a tree of tears stands in the wood of my dreams youward, now you are here— The moon pours me fulfillment from the bowl of its splendor— I love you, you, and place the scent of cloves before your chamber, and throw narcissus over your bed. I myself come, as silver as you, and arch myself high, a sacred grove above the altar of your reverent soul. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...OBSERVATION POST by KURT HEYNICKE LESSER EPISTLES: TO A YOUNG LADY WITH SOME LAMPREYS by JOHN GAY SNAKE by DAVID HERBERT LAWRENCE THE MORAL WARFARE by JOHN GREENLEAF WHITTIER MY SHIP by ELIZABETH AKERS ALLEN RHAPSODY by MARTIN DONISTHORPE ARMSTRONG A SONNET.
