Syned: Moonlight - ZaunköniG - 09.06.2007 Moonlight The storm is spent, the wind has died away; Cool raindrops cling to trembling leaf and tree As one departing lingers--loath to stay-- And yet departing more unwillingly. The clouds have vanished from the purpled sky Before the footsteps of the rising moon (The queen whose jewelled courtiers prostrate lie Dazed by the splendour of her silvered shoon). The earth beneath, half-hidden, half-revealed, Breathes mellowed beauty where each faery beam Bathes kloof and vlei and kraal and mealie-field And willows swaying sadly o'er a stream-- In light--wherein a mining shaft may seem The angel's ladder of a poet's dream. |
