Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Wild Geese To My Mother. Thine is the beauty of the summer stars Gathered within a fern-fringed pool, When not a ripple mars Its surface cool. Thou art as fragrant as the peach-tree´s bloom, Bending beneath so rich a store That there is hardly room For one bud more. Thy grace is as the grace of ripening wheat That to the wind´s soft wooing yields, Sending the shadows fleet Across the fields. The glint of sunny waters is thy smile. Thy laughter brings as dear delight As birds´ clear singing while The dawn grows bright. Thou couldst not but be fair, for thy pure soul Transfigures thee with an excess Of light, an aureole Of holiness. Yet thou art not a pale and pensive saint Dreaming thy cloistered life away, Despising the restraint Of this dull clay.
