I LOVE..., by HOPE RIDINGS MILLER First Line: Slow drifts of haze that veil the hills Last Line: And hours that I have spent with you. Subject(s): Evening; Love; Sea; Sunset; Twilight; Ocean | ||||||||
Slow drifts of haze that veil the hills, The twilight's peace when day has gone, A vagrant autumn breeze that wafts The crimson scarf of Dawn; Thin china on a hearth-lit shelf . . . The rhythmic lapping of the sea, A moon that makes an etching of The branches of a willow tree . . . And best of all I love are these: -- A red-wing's flash against the blue . . . The pelt of rain . . . and silences . . . And hours that I have spent with you. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...HALL OF OCEAN LIFE by JOHN HOLLANDER JULY FOURTH BY THE OCEAN by ROBINSON JEFFERS BOATS IN A FOG by ROBINSON JEFFERS CONTINENT'S END by ROBINSON JEFFERS THE FIGUREHEAD by LEONIE ADAMS |
