LIKE UNTO SHARON'S ROSES, by ISRAEL GOLDBERG First Line: My darling, your grace Last Line: And raise me from doubting and failing. Alternate Author Name(s): Learsi, Rufus Subject(s): Flowers; Jews; Jews - Women; Roses; Judaism | |||
MY darling, your grace And the bloom of your face Are sweet as of Sharon the roses, ... And a radiance rare Illumines your hair As verdure where moonlight reposes; And your cadence is low As Jordan's still flow When twilight day's revelry closes. My darling, your blush Is like morning's full flush When over Mount Hermon he's scaling, And the dream in your eye Is like Galilee's sky When only one cloudlet is sailing, And the lure of your smile My sadness beguile And raise me from doubting and failing. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE RABBI'S SON-IN-LAW by SABINE BARING-GOULD A LITTLE HISTORY by DAVID LEHMAN FOR I WILL CONSIDER YOUR DOG MOLLY by DAVID LEHMAN JEWISH GRAVEYARDS, ITALY by PHILIP LEVINE NATIONAL THOUGHTS by YEHUDA AMICHAI SOUNDS OF THE RESURRECTED DEAD MAN'S FOOTSTEPS (#3): 2.
