Though I must sleep, and give my body rest, Still must I love this Moon with all my heart; Like silly lovers, walking to and fro, We see each other home, and cannot part. And when at last the final moment comes, When I have said 'Good Night,' from under cover – I still have hopes to see her pass my window, As she goes home alone, without her lover. Night after night we play this lover's game, We come and go, from place to place we roam: Yet no fair Lady, half so sweet, should be The last at night to see her lover home. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SONG OF THE LITTLE WHITE GIRL by KATHERINE MANSFIELD TO W.P.: 2 by GEORGE SANTAYANA THE DREAM by GEORGE GORDON BYRON THE REVEILLE by FRANCIS BRET HARTE A ROUGH RHYME ON A ROUGH MATTER; THE ENGLISH GAME LAWS by CHARLES KINGSLEY |
