SERENADE, by LEXIE DEAN ROBERTSON Poet's Biography First Line: There is a singing in my heart Last Line: Is my song's only word. Subject(s): Hearts; Love; Quiet Life; Serenity | ||||||||
THERE is a singing in my heart Like whispering of waves That echo tunes where mermaids sing Deep in their turquoise caves. A singing like far temple bells Swung in a golden arc To build a bridge of melody From saffron dusk to dark. Like shining splash of purple oars In some smooth moon-drenched pool Where willows dip their scented fronds, And little winds blow cool. A singing sweet as any sound That beauty ever heard, And this is strange ... because your name Is my song's only word. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...MIDSUMMER IN THE CATSKILLS by JOHN BURROUGHS THE WEST by PEARL V.
