Sonnet - ZaunköniG - 01.05.2012 Sonnet OH! that swift words of fire might leave my pen Like lightning on a stormy midnight sky, That all the moods that love and hate supply Might be expressed to move the minds of men As wind among the branches, that the glen Might lend its sweetness, and the mountains high Their melancholy awe, and the long sigh Of summer-tide its peace, for surely then My songs would ring sweet chimes in noble ears And fill the listening world with melody Till every land would quiver at my fame And treasure it through dark and shining years; Then would all nations learn to worship thee, Dear love, and bow at mention of thy name. |
