MUSIC AT EVENING, by ELEANOR G. R. YOUNG First Line: All of my dreams float down those silvery notes Last Line: And see the brightness of the evening stars. Subject(s): Music & Musicians | ||||||||
All of my dreams float down those silvery notes Softly as gray-winged gulls, heading to sea; Memory dwells in your music as it floats Down half-forgotten yesterdays to me. And I, who cannot waken ivory keys To soft-toned measures or to stately bars, Can hear the wind blow through the poplar trees, And see the brightness of the evening stars. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LINER NOTES TO AN IMAGINARY PLAYLIST by TERRANCE HAYES VARIATIONS: 13 by CONRAD AIKEN BELIEVE, BELIEVE by BOB KAUFMAN ROUND ABOUT MIDNIGHT by BOB KAUFMAN MUSIC by CHARLOTTE FISKE BATES THE POWER OF MUSIC by CHARLOTTE FISKE BATES A YOUNG CHIEF RETURNS by ELEANOR G.
