UNITY, by VIRGINIA WOODWARD CLOUD First Line: A sombre pine is stirred Last Line: And brushed by the bird's soft wing. Subject(s): Dreams; Pine Trees; Nightmares | ||||||||
A sombre pine is stirred By the recreant wind on high, And out of the gloom, like a word Breaketh a bird to the sky. The sky speaks truth through a star, The star seeks the heart of the sea, To the sea strives a river afar, To the river a brook laughs free, And down to the brook there gleams The thread of a mountain spring, Born in the hush of that pine-tree's dreams, And brushed by the bird's soft wing. | Other Poems of Interest...THE BOOK OF A THOUSAND EYES: A DREAM by LYN HEJINIAN VARIATIONS: 14 by CONRAD AIKEN VARIATIONS: 18 by CONRAD AIKEN LIVE IT THROUGH by DAVID IGNATOW A DREAM OF GAMES by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN THE DREAM OF WAKING by RANDALL JARRELL APOLOGY FOR BAD DREAMS by ROBINSON JEFFERS GIVE YOUR WISH LIGHT by ROBINSON JEFFERS |
