Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Earth With Her Bars: And Other Poems I Cried, "God, set me free, break down earth bars And let my soul mount upward to the stars. Earth is too small, ´tis heaven that I would gain, Why must these bars perpetually restrain? But loose all bonds, then might I rise and go, Leaving world mists for some supernal snow Where human things to nothingness must shrink, Dropping unwanted at heavens utmost brink. God said, "To heaven, thou, whom I made for earth? Between the narrow gates of death and birth Can´st thou not spend the brief and reckoned space Without a scorn of thy fair dwelling-place? What would´st in heaven with thy poor human toys Of sense and passion, tears, regrets and joys? In heaven such are as playthings laid aside; Of these bereft hast aught to keep beside? Earth is my handiwork, I joyed therein: If thou as well it therefore were no sin. Each flowing river, laughing brook and rill Holds in its depths my pleasures echo still. The west wind sighs it and the south replies; Dawn is as wondrous now as when Eve´s eyes About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
