Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Hours of Childhood: A Poem The Hours of Childhood. Farewell, thou lovely day of youth, farewell! For thee, the Muse a garland now doth weave Of flowerets, culled from mountain, field and dell, Which fond Remembrance at thy tomb shall leave. But will thy rosy morn ne´er dawn again Upon the cheerless face of life´s dull plain? Cannot its fragrance yet again be shed On manhood´s brow, or on the hoary head? No! ne´er again its happy dew shall fall On hours once wrapped in time´s obscuring pall! No magic art can their lost charms restore, For when they fade, they fade to bloom no more! O Childhood! gone, alas, is thy bright day, When on the sunny lawns I used to play; When flowery Time, with Joy, flew smiling by, Linked hand in hand, beneath a cloudless sky; Yet Fancy´s wand bids all thy charms arise, In pristine glow, before my longing eyes. Kind Memory oft extends her willing hand, And leads me back to view again that land, Where roses bloom in one perpetual spring, And buds of joy are ever blossoming; - About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
