THE RUINED MILL, by JULIUS STURM Poet's Biography First Line: The moon is newly risen Last Line: And I am grey and old. Subject(s): Mills And Millers | |||
THE moon is newly risen, I wander through the vale; My dreaming eyes are spell-bound By radiance sad and pale. Behind the mill she rises; I watch her silver shield, And in my heart burst open The wounds I thought were healed. Long since, the wheels have mouldered, And roof and door are gone; Babbling of days departed The glittering stream flows on. The moon has sunk in darkness, The wind is blowing cold; Dead is the miller's daughter, And I am grey and old. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...MY FATHER'S GARDEN by DAVID WAGONER HANCHEN, THE MAID OF THE MILL by WILLIAM MCGONAGALL LUBBER BREEZE by THOMAS STURGE MOORE THE WOOD MILL by LUTHER LAURENCE DOWRICK PRATT STEEL MILL MEN by JULIAN LEE RAYFORD KINGRY'S MILL by JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY THE JOLLY MILLER by JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY THE OLD HOME BY THE MILL by JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY LAMENT OF GRANITE by DAVID ROSS |
