KINDLY VISION, by OTTO JULIUS BIERBAUM First Line: Not in sleep I saw it, but in daylight Last Line: Full of beauty waiting till we enter. Subject(s): Beauty; Hearts; Love | ||||||||
NOT in sleep I saw it, but in daylight, Clear and beautiful by day before me: Saw a meadow overgrown with daisies, Round a cottage white in green embowered; Statues of the gods gleam in the arbor. And the lady that I walk with loves me, With a quiet spirit in the coolness And the peacefulness of this white dwelling, Full of beauty waiting till we enter. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE INVENTION OF LOVE by MATTHEA HARVEY TWO VIEWS OF BUSON by ROBERT HASS A LOVE FOR FOUR VOICES: HOMAGE TO FRANZ JOSEPH HAYDN by ANTHONY HECHT AN OFFERING FOR PATRICIA by ANTHONY HECHT LATE AFTERNOON: THE ONSLAUGHT OF LOVE by ANTHONY HECHT A SWEETENING ALL AROUND ME AS IT FALLS by JANE HIRSHFIELD BLACKSMITH PAIN by OTTO JULIUS BIERBAUM |
