Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Midland Poems To My Wife. O might October days but linger - Linger and lengthen without surcease, The fading glory fade ever, and fling her Mystic mantle in charmed peace On woodland, and prairie, and sunlight splendor - How sweet were dreaming ´mid scenes so tender The low winds murmuring and moving, Like spirits aimless in Edens vast, Should weave fair legends of happy loving - The long, dim story of all the past: And, sweetest by far to thee and me, The lyrical voices, of chivalry. But autumn days of peace are waning: The far horizon grows sharp and cold: The keen winds utter but shrill complaining - Harsh tune for themes of the days of old. So I must sing, if I sing at all, Of things unwelcome that now befall. I bring you songs to fit the weather - Tales, whose sad burden is grief to me: Perchance, ere long, we may roam together, ´Mid knights and ladies of high degree, Where lordly castles tower o´er the hills, And olden beauty the dream-land fills.
