THE SONG OF THE SECRET, by WALTER JOHN DE LA MARE Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Where is beauty? Last Line: Secret as dream. Alternate Author Name(s): Ramal, Walter; De La Mare, Walter | |||
Where is beauty? Gone, gone: The cold winds have taken it With their faint moan; The white stars have shaken it, Trembling down, Into the pathless deeps of the sea: Gone, gone Is beauty from me. The clear naked flower Is faded and dead; The green-leafed willow, Drooping her head, Whispers low to the shade Of her boughs in the stream, Sighing a beauty Secret as dream. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest... |
