@3Whatever loveliness is in this music, Whatever yearning after lovely things, -- Whatever crying after stars, in darkness, Whatever beating of impeded wings: Whatever climbing of the rose to sunlight, Sweet-hearted laugh from the dark blind sod: Whatever madness of the sea for moonlight, Whatever yearning of the good to God: All that is beautiful, and all that looks on beauty With eyes filled with fire, like a lover's eyes: All of this is yours; you gave it to me, sunlight! All these stars are yours; you gave them to me, skies!@1 | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...CHRISMUS ON THE PLANTATION by PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR ECCLESIASTICAL SONNETS: PART 2: 25.
