Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Toiler and Other Poems "I gather my poems out of the heart of the clover, Out of the wayside weeds, out of the meadows about me - In gleams from the dewdrops soul, from wings of birds shaken downward, Poems the night-rain brings, shot through the beeches incessant; Poems the grasshopper sings, beating his noonday labor; The gossamer web is a rhythm, blown from the valley of Quiet - A rondeau that turns on itself, folded in shimmering garments; And, when the whirling flakes are tangled, at dusk, in the thickets, The voice of Song outcries in the bleat of lambs on the hillside. "All things sing to me - cry: laughter, or tears, or music. The storm hath its rhythmical beat; the day its musical cadence: Ever an ebb or a flow - a flame, or a mournful nightfall, A rivulet, bearded with moss, to me is Theocritus singing; A violet, bursting in spring, thrills me with exquisite music; A child´s voice, heard in the dusk, shakes me with infinite pathos, The flash of the daybreak´s sword, the march of the midnight planets, The sweep of the mighty winds, the shout of the prophet-voiced thunder, Restlessly throb in my soul, and shape themselves into measure." Charles J. O´Malley. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
