A NIGHT THOUGHT - ZaunköniG - 27.12.2010
A NIGHT THOUGHT.
snowy star ! which I all night have eyed,
As some poor girl her lover's moon-lit sail,
Bound for the outer sea at early tide —
The rosy billows and the morning gale —
1 grieve to lose thee ! for the night will fail
And thou be gone at dawning ; but, to-night,
Thou fill'st my cup of tears with silver light,
And lustres of regret serene and pale :
Thou dost express and symbolize the whole
Of those deep thoughts that pierce me and refine ;
But see ! the daytime comes with all its dole !
Ah ! woody hills and autumn-tints divine !
Ah ! mournful eyes ! Ah ! sad poetic soul !
Ah ! beauteous thoughts and fatal woes of mine !
