I THINK of thee when golden sunbeams glimmer Across the sea; And when the waves reflect the moon's pale shimmer I think of thee. I see thy form when down the distant highway The dust-clouds rise; In darkest night, above the mountain by-way I see thine eyes. I hear thee when the ocean-tides returning Aloud rejoice; And on the lonely moor in silence yearning I hear thy voice. I dwell with thee; though thou art far removed, Yet thou art near. The sun goes down, the stars shine out, -- Beloved If thou wert here! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...TO TIRZAH, FR.
