FEAR, by LANGDON ELWYN MITCHELL Poet's Biography First Line: There is a sound I would not hear Last Line: Should burst in bloom -- should blossoms bear. Alternate Author Name(s): Varley, John Philip | |||
THERE is a sound I would not hear, Although it music's self might be; Lest in my breast a crystal sphere Might burst, might break for melody. There is a face i would not see Tho' like the springtime it were fair; Lest love that was a barren tree Should burst in bloom -- should blossoms bear. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SWEETS THAT DIE by LANGDON ELWYN MITCHELL THE WAYSIDE VIRGIN by LANGDON ELWYN MITCHELL TO ONE BEING OLD by LANGDON ELWYN MITCHELL WRITTEN AT THE END OF A BOOK by LANGDON ELWYN MITCHELL OCTAVES: 8 by EDWIN ARLINGTON ROBINSON A ROUGH RHYME ON A ROUGH MATTER; THE ENGLISH GAME LAWS by CHARLES KINGSLEY SPANIARDS' GRAVES AT THE ISLES OF SHOALS by CELIA LEIGHTON THAXTER A PETITION by THOMAS BAILEY ALDRICH PEARLS OF THE FAITH: 22.
