We two went, hand in hand, dear love, Among the flowering trees Where peach- and apple-blossoms call With every scented breeze; We two, just we, and hand in hand We loved each fragrant tree, With only me for you, dear love, And only you for me. We two went, hand in hand, dear love, Down through the mystic pines Where little summer zephyrs blew Among the clambering vines; We two, just we, and hand in hand We roamed the woodland through, With only you for me, dear love, And only me for you. We two went, hand in hand, dear love, Across the wind-swept lea Where little autumn breezes blew From tree to distant tree. We two, just we, and hand in hand We roamed the meadow free With only me for you, dear love, And only you for me. We two went, hand in hand, dear love, And climbed the distant hill Where snow lay white, and ice had stopped The murmuring of the rill. We two, just we, and hand in hand We raced where cold winds blew, With only you for me, dear love, And only me for you. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...VARIATIONS: 14 by CONRAD AIKEN VARIATIONS: 18 by CONRAD AIKEN LIVE IT THROUGH by DAVID IGNATOW A DREAM OF GAMES by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN THE DREAM OF WAKING by RANDALL JARRELL APOLOGY FOR BAD DREAMS by ROBINSON JEFFERS GIVE YOUR WISH LIGHT by ROBINSON JEFFERS A DREAM OF JULIUS CAESAR by ROBERT FROST |
