TWILIGHT REVERIE, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Remembered in the evening
Last Line: Gaze at my face, as it were a pink cloud.
Alternate Author Name(s): Moore, T. Sturge


REMEMBERED in the evening,
After a long happy day,
All my moods of work and play
Fold together like a book,
Collect, compose as, at a look,
A picture shows you miles of land,
Mountain or camel-travelled sand,
Or as a crowd which may require,
For all its homes, full half a shire.

Remembered in the evening,
After a long happy day,
All my moods of work or play
Gleam like pool at some sea-side
Left by a far-ebbing tide..
World you could cover with a gown,
Weed-forests, a pebble town
And shell palace, where tiny, proud,
Invisible royalties,
From pearl-fretted balconies,
Gaze at my face, as it were a pink cloud.
