AMULETS, by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER Poet's Biography First Line: Out of the dark, your eyes Last Line: Out of the world ... Your heart! Alternate Author Name(s): Hooker, Brian | |||
Out of the dark, your eyes, Beckoning far and fair, Under whose laughter gleams A witchery of dreams -- A fantasy of prayer -- Making new hopes arise Out of the dark ... your eyes! Out of the storm, your voice, Bidding the sea be still, Warm with the kindly mirth And honesty of earth, Rousing my strength to will, And struggle, and rejoice Out of the storm ... your voice! Out of the world, your heart, Waiting to call me home -- A beautiful calm place Wherein to hide my face Awhile from flame and foam, Feeling all pain depart Out of the world ... your heart! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A CHARACTER by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER A LITTLE PERSON by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER A MAN'S SONG by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER A MAN-CHILD'S LULLABY by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER A PORTRAIT by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER A ROBIN'S SONG by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER A SCHOOLGIRL SPEAKS by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER A STITUATION by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER A WOMAN'S SONG by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER ABSENCES by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER |
