CECIL RHODES - ZaunköniG - 09.08.2014 CECIL RHODES SEER of visions that our feeble sight Failed to appraise, or only faintly saw ! Dim shadowy shapes upon an alien shore They rose for us that had so little light We could not pierce the mists that seemed to draw Closer about them while we gazed, and made Their substance melt like shadows into shade When twilight slowly deepens into night. But now the darkness lifts, and we behold As from a peak on which the sunlight blooms, Each separate form's incorporate majesty, Clear as those rocks that dare the highest cold. Based and secure above the passing glooms, They stand for eyes that were too blind to see. |
