On this long storm the Rainbow rose - On this late morn - the sun - The Clouds - like listless Elephants - Horizons - straggled down - The Birds rose smiling, in their nests - The gales - indeed - were done - Alas, how heedless were the eyes - On whom the summer shone! The quiet nonchalance of death - No Daybreak - can bestir - The slow - Archangel's syllables Must awaken her! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...IN TEMPTATION by CHARLES WESLEY OF BENEVOLENCE: AN EPISTLE TO EUMENES by JOHN ARMSTRONG REPRISALS by WILLIAM ROSE BENET TO L.E.L.
