Where then is my pain? I have no more pain. Where then is my love? Naught I reck thereof. On the sweet strand withdrawn, in this hour's serenity, in the innocence of dawn, O the distant sea! Where then is my pain? I have no more pain. Where then is my love? Naught I reck thereof. Waves of ribbons bright, breeze from out the main, waves of ribbons bright twixt my fingers white. Where then is my love? I have no more pain. Where then is my pain? Naught I reck thereof. O'er heaven's pearly way dreaming eyes pursue a sea-gull's plumage gray, all shining with the dew. I have no more pain. Where then is my love? Where then is my pain? I have no more love. In the innocent dawn, O the distant sea! 'Tis but a murmuring at the margin of the sun. Where then is my pain? I have no more pain. 'Tis but a murmuring at the margin of the sun. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE APOLLO TRIO by CONRAD AIKEN BAD GIRL SINGING by MARK JARMAN CHAMBER MUSIC: 4 by JAMES JOYCE CHAMBER MUSIC: 5 by JAMES JOYCE CHAMBER MUSIC: 28 by JAMES JOYCE THE SONG OF THE NIGHTINGALE IS LIKE THE SCENT OF SYRINGA by MINA LOY A PORTFOLIO OF SKETCHES: THE LITTLE ANNUITANT by PAUL FORT |
