A NIGHT IN JUNE, by VICTOR MARIE HUGO Poet's Biography First Line: In summer - daylight fled - where flowers abound Last Line: Seems all night long on heaven's low ridge to halt. | |||
IN summer--daylight fled--where flowers abound, The fields their luscious fragrance pour afar; With half-closed eyes, ears scarce awake to sound, Slumbering, our minds not all unconscious are. The stars, more pure, shine through the shadowy skies; Uncertain twilight tints th' eternal vault; Dawn, soft and pale, waiting its hour to rise, Seems all night long on heaven's low ridge to halt. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A NEW SONG TO AN OLD TUNE by VICTOR MARIE HUGO A UN PASSANT by VICTOR MARIE HUGO A UNE FEMME by VICTOR MARIE HUGO AFTER THE BATTLE by VICTOR MARIE HUGO AN EVENING SCENE by VICTOR MARIE HUGO AN OLD SONG OF A YOUTHFUL TIME by VICTOR MARIE HUGO CHILDHOOD by VICTOR MARIE HUGO CHOSES DU SOIR by VICTOR MARIE HUGO |
