upon the enchanted ladder of his rhymes
round after round and patiently
the poet ever upward climbs | img2poems |
o hearken
thus the rose-spray listening
with what weird music sweet these full hearts ring | img2poems |
daughter of my nobler hope
that dying gave thee birth
sweet melancholy | img2poems |
his liquid music from the brink
of some cloud-fountain seemed to sink
built in the blue-domed sky | img2poems |
now sparkles the air all steely-bright
with drops swept down in arrow-flight
keen quivering lines | img2poems |
ceased in a breath the showery sound
and teasingly now as i look around
sweet sunlight shines | img2poems |
how welcome is its delicate overture
at evening when the glowing-moistur'd west
seals all things with cool promise of night's rest | img2poems |
and still my soul is fain
to know the secret of that yearning
which in thine utterance i hear returning | img2poems |
so however thou hast wrought
this wild joy on heart and brain
it is better left untaught | img2poems |
take thou up the song again
there is nothing sad afloat
on the tide that swells thy throat | img2poems |
oh sweet elixir in the blood
that makes us live with those long dead
or hope for those that shall be bred | img2poems |
veiled in visionary haze
behold the ethereal autumn days
draw near again | img2poems |
fair dreams farewell
so in life's stir and pride
you fade and leave the treasure of a tear | img2poems |
hark to that faint ethereal twang
that from the bosom of the breeze
has caught its rise and fall: there rang | img2poems |
leave me my tearless sad refrain
when in the pine-top wakes the gale
that breathes of coming rain | img2poems |
at first the wind's old wayward will
drew forth the tearless sad refrain
that ceased and all was still | img2poems |
or aught besides that smites that string
since then so close it knit our fates
what time the bird took wing | img2poems |
scenes that i love to me always remain
beautiful whether under summer's sun
beheld or storm-dark stricken across with rain | img2poems |
so through all humors thou 'rt the same sweet one
doubt not i love thee well in each who see
thy constant change is changeful constancy | img2poems |
the breezy forests sigh in moonlit trances
and the full-hearted poet waking fancies
the smiling hills will break in laughter soon | img2poems |
the wounded died ere i came up
my cup was still untasted
untasted | img2poems |
't is not of these i would complain
with these i were contented
contented | img2poems |
dost thou remember love those hours
shot o'er with random rainy showers
when the bold sun would woo coy may | img2poems |
not always what they seek they find
when groping through dim-lighted natures
fond lovers look for old ideal statures | img2poems |
oh can you spy the ancient town
the granite hills so hard and gray
that rib the land behind the bay | img2poems |
three years
is it so long that we
have lived upon the lonely sea | img2poems |
and for this sweetness walt her lover sought
to win her wooed her here his heart full-fraught
with fragrance of her being and gained his plea | img2poems |
at last she heard no more
the neighbors said
that walt had married faithless or was dead | img2poems |
so circling years went by and in her face
slow melancholy wrought a tempered grace
of early joy with sorrow's rich alloy | img2poems |
discouraged on disaster's changeful shoal
wrecking he rested starved on selfish pride
long years nor would obey love's homeward tide | img2poems |
he died: the creatures of his kind
fared on
not one had known his mind | img2poems |
ah god
rain fire upon this foul-souled city
that gives such death and spares its men for pity | img2poems |
rounded strengthy limbs
that knit me to my kind
your glory turns to grief | img2poems |
shall i for my soul sing hymns
yet for my body find
no clear divine belief | img2poems |
