Green light, from the moon, Pours over the dark blue trees, Green light from the autumn moon Pours on the grass . . . Green light falls on the goblin fountain Where hesitant lovers meet and pass. They laugh in the moonlight, touching hands, They move like leaves on the wind . . . I remember an autumn night like this, And not so long ago, When other lovers were blown like leaves, Before the coming of snow. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SONNET: 1.
