O MOONLIGHT deep and tender, A year and more agone, Your mist of golden splendor Round my betrothal shone! O elm-leaves dark and dewy, The very same ye seem, The low wind trembles through ye, Ye murmur in my dream! O river, dim with distance, Flow thus forever by, A part of my existence Within your heart doth lie! O stars, ye saw our meeting, Two beings and one soul, Two hearts so madly beating To mingle and be whole! O happy night, deliver Her kisses back to me, Or keep them all, and give her A blissful dream of me! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SPOON RIVER ANTHOLOGY: EMILY SPARKS by EDGAR LEE MASTERS VENI CREATOR SPIRITUS by GREGORY I THE MAGIC MIRROR by HENRY MILLS ALDEN THE CALIPH'S DRAUGHT by EDWIN ARNOLD A CONCEPTION by DAISY MAUD BELLIS PSALM 64 by OLD TESTAMENT BIBLE |
