LYRIC, by AL-BARRAQ First Line: Lo, as the thrushes' throats Last Line: Being so close to thee. | |||
Lo, as the thrushes' throats Throb with their golden notes The river's silver dress Shakes in the wind's caress. The gently cooing dove (Dost thou not hear, my love?) Is stirred to ecstasy, Being so close to thee. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...PARASITICS: TO CERTAIN POETS by CONRAD AIKEN UPON HIS DEPARTURE HENCE by ROBERT HERRICK CHRISTMAS AT SEA by ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON A DESCRIPTION OF SUCH A ONE AS HE WOULD LOVE by THOMAS WYATT |
