MY LADY IS MY DREAM GIRL, by CHARLES LOUIS HENRY WAGNER First Line: My lady is my dream-girl Last Line: My lady's but a dream. Subject(s): Dreams; Fantasy; Girls; Nightmares | ||||||||
My Lady is my dream-girl, My dream-girl, my dream-girl, A phantasy of mind awhirl, A bubble on love-streams that purl O'er beds where gold doth gleam; I see her in the Morn's blush, The Morn's blush, the Morn's blush, I hear her in the migrant thrush, In rippling brooks 'neath woodland brush, My Lady's but a dream. My Lady lives in Dream Land, In Dream Land, in Dream Land, With elfs and sprites on golden strand, Herself a queen of phantom band Who rules o'er all, supreme; I would I were an elf-man, An elf-man, an elf-man, A member of my Lady's clan, Her king in realms elysian; My Lady's but a dream. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...VARIATIONS: 14 by CONRAD AIKEN VARIATIONS: 18 by CONRAD AIKEN LIVE IT THROUGH by DAVID IGNATOW A DREAM OF GAMES by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN THE DREAM OF WAKING by RANDALL JARRELL APOLOGY FOR BAD DREAMS by ROBINSON JEFFERS GIVE YOUR WISH LIGHT by ROBINSON JEFFERS A DROP OF INK by CHARLES LOUIS HENRY WAGNER |
