POINT LOMA SONNETS: 12. SUNRISE, by WINIFRED DAVIDSON
First Line: There where you lie now are you quite content
Last Line: With orange poppies, callas, wormwood, rue?
Subject(s): Point Loma, California
First Line: There where you lie now are you quite content
Last Line: With orange poppies, callas, wormwood, rue?
Subject(s): Point Loma, California
There where you lie now, are you quite content
When dawn is trembling like a scattered rose
On Loma's hills, while life still brims and blows
Southing for me; mystic -- magnificent
For me? And when white East is spent
With seeking you, at last the last shade goes
Past San Clement's rim? Lost heart, who knows
What were your word -- you voiceless, impotent?
Dream you of Loma in oblivion?
Of Loma's lark songs curved about the blue
Beyond these little streets where we have gone
Whispering of homes and lovers? Peaceful, you?
While streets of summering Loma bourgeon
With orange poppies, callas, wormwood, rue?
