LULLABY, by PEARL LENORE POLLARD CURRAN First Line: Dream, dream, thou flesh of me! Last Line: And rest and rest and rest. Alternate Author Name(s): Worth, Patience | ||||||||
Dream, dream, thou flesh of me! Dream thou next my breast. Dream, dream and coax the stars To light thee at thy rest. Sleep, sleep, thou breath of Him Who watcheth thee and me. Dream, dream, and dreaming, Coax that He shall see. Rest, rest thou fairy form That presseth soft my breast. Kest, rest and nestle warm, And rest and rest and rest. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE SHADOW LAND by PEARL LENORE POLLARD CURRAN THE WEEPING EARTH by PEARL LENORE POLLARD CURRAN VARIATIONS: 17 by CONRAD AIKEN BOUTS RIMES IN PRAISE OF OLD MAIDS by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD SONNET: 15 by RICHARD BARNFIELD TO JOY by EDMUND CHARLES BLUNDEN MORNING ON SHINNECOCK by OLIVA WARD BUSH BALLAD TO THE TUNE - 'BUT I FANCY LOVELY NANCY' by PATRICK CAREY THE CONSPIRACY OF CHARLES, DUKE OF BYRON by GEORGE CHAPMAN (1559-1634) |
