Stock, Elliot: CLOUDS. - ZaunköniG - 28.10.2007 CLOUDS. THE mirky clouds that with their shade o'ercast The sunless land with gloom and dull despair, By sweeping hurricane and purging blast Are riven up and split to cloudlets fair ; These passing o'er the edge of evening's realm Go on, through breadths of amber-lighted air, To far-off lands, and with their glory whelm The weary world in restful influence rare. So all our stormy thoughts and gloom of mind The stagnant vapour of a noontide heat- Whirled round and cleansed by healthful stir of wind In brighter forms their darker selves repeat. The clouds of doubt that rise in restless youth In mellower light dissolve to restful truth. |
