BUT, oh, upon the sky to look again!... - ZaunköniG - 07.05.2012 Caroline Woolmer Leakey 1827 - 1881 Großbritannien / Australien BUT, oh, upon the sky to look again! Not when the lordly sun enthroned does reign In gaze-defying state - proud pompous glare Imparting, till broad heaven's cerulean dye Taunts with its ardent stainlessness the eye, Which longs to dwell upon a scene so fair; But I would stand beneath the sky, when there The twinkling stars are thronging up and round, Where still the moon, in quietness profound, Walks through the ethereal field, as maiden fair By far-off stream, in some deep lonely vale, Her lingering way at eventide may wind; While happy thoughts come crowding up her mind, Like stars at night, each with its pleasant tale. |
