MUSIC AND MEMORY (TO K.W.), by ARTHUR WILLIAM SYMONS Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Across the tides of music, in the night Last Line: Music in music, in the night. Subject(s): Music & Musicians | ||||||||
Across the tides of music, in the night, Her magical face, A light upon it as the happy light Of dreams in some delicious place Under the moonlight in the night. Music, soft throbbing music in the night, Her memory swims Into the brain, a carol of delight; The cup of music overbrims With wine of memory, in the night. Her face across the music, in the night, Her face a refrain, A light that sings along the waves of light, A memory that returns again, Music in music, in the night. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LINER NOTES TO AN IMAGINARY PLAYLIST by TERRANCE HAYES VARIATIONS: 13 by CONRAD AIKEN BELIEVE, BELIEVE by BOB KAUFMAN ROUND ABOUT MIDNIGHT by BOB KAUFMAN MUSIC by CHARLOTTE FISKE BATES THE POWER OF MUSIC by CHARLOTTE FISKE BATES NERVES by ARTHUR WILLIAM SYMONS |
