Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Ballads and Poems Ballads and Poems Inspiration While the mountains sink in their blue, blue dream And only the tenderest white emerges, My mind swims out like a turquoise stream Till being resolves and ripples and surges And pours like a dream upon their faces, And soaks like sleep beneath their bases; Then back it swims like a strange gray tide Unsatisfied; Sullen and slow as a pinewood pool It coils itself and crouches, cool. The world comes close to its deep green eye, But it moveth not in its spiriting, And it knoweth why; For my soul is bent to a mighty spring. Pantherian, torrential, it takes the long bow Of the wind´s back, to dive Voidward, and lunges An arrow Alive! As the panther springs, As the torrent plunges, As the sun´s needle stung to the nerve, to the marrow Ho! From snapping link, from iron thong, Over the brink like a silver gong My soul booms out on its eagle wings, - Swims out and shakes with the sun between Its pennons green! It would poise aright where the swallow swings Between blue rings; It would skim like light where the bighorn leaps On the grassy steeps; But height shrinks rare and space falls narrow; My soul drops back on fainting wings, Outdared by a sheep, Baulked by a sparrow!
