STELLA, by CHARLES HENRY CRANDALL First Line: Home from the observatory Last Line: What o'erfloweth from her eyes. | |||
HOME from the observatory, Now I take her on my knee, And I tell her all the glory That the lenses showed to me. Pleased, she listens to my story, Earnest look then turneth she Where the stars are softly blinking In the blue of summer skies. Ah! she sees beyond my thinking, Even into Paradise! Very humbly I am drinking What o'erfloweth from her eyes. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE CINDER PATH by CHARLES HENRY CRANDALL THE HUMAN PLAN by CHARLES HENRY CRANDALL WITH LILACS by CHARLES HENRY CRANDALL THE WANDERINGS OF OISIN by WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS SECOND BOOK OF AIRS: SONG 12 by THOMAS CAMPION THE BLACK FINGER by ANGELINA WELD GRIMKE NATURE; SONNET by HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW THE FIGHT AT SAN JACINTO [APRIL 21, 1836] by JOHN WILLIAMSON PALMER ON A BUST OF DANTE by THOMAS WILLIAM PARSONS THE HOUSE OF LIFE: 70.
