SIESTA - ZaunköniG - 09.08.2014 COME to me, sleep, when all the day is loud, And the hot cares and noises of the light Fret the raw wounds that irk, then, gentle sprite, Close round me like a drowsy bosomed cloud And fold me in from all the pressing crowd Of harsh solicitudes ; obscure my sight With drooping lids, and soothingly unite My soul and thine in one dim filmy shroud Wrought in the vale of Leth ; trance me deep In dreams ; sway me in easeful slumber ; close All avenues against distressful sound, And with thy downy wings about me, keep Congenial guard against insidious foes, Lest the gates part and my retreat be found. |
