Your orange hair in the void of the world
The
sentiments
apparent
Would you see
You rise the water unfolds
I only wish to love you
The world is blue as an orange
We have created the night I hold your hand I watch
Even when we sleep we watch over each other
Donkey or cow, cockerel or horse
I looked in front of me
If I speak it's to hear you more clearly
We two take each other by the hand
At dawn I love you I've the whole night in my veins
She looks into me
A single smile disputes

Or contrary to what her lips confessed,
No matter which her view, 'twas very plain,
If she would Hispal's

'Twere right the youth with promises to feed,
While his assistance she so much must need:
As soon as he was ready to depart
She pressed him fondly to her glowing heart,
And charged him with a letter to the king;
This Hispal hastened to the prince to bring;
Each sail he crowded:--plied with ev'ry oar;
A wind quite fair soon brought him to shore;
To court he went, where all with eager eyes,
Demanded if he lived, amid surprise,
And where he left the princess; what her state?

Pushkin - Boris Gudonov |
|
A washed-out smallpox cracks her face,
Her hand twists a paper rose,
That smells of dust and old Cologne,
She is alone With all the old
nocturnal
smells
That cross and cross across her brain.

Eliot - Rhapsody on a Windy Night |
|
Nature, the
gentlest
mother,
Impatient of no child,
The feeblest or the waywardest, --
Her admonition mild
In forest and the hill
By traveller is heard,
Restraining rampant squirrel
Or too impetuous bird.

Edgar Allen Poe |
|
Ye nests will oscillate beneath the
youthful
progeny;
Embraced in furrows of the earth the germing grain will lie;
Ye lightning-torches still your streams will cast into the air,
Which like a troubled spirit's course float wildly here and there.

Hugo - Poems |

No idly-feign'd, poetic pains,
My sad, love-lorn
lamentings
claim:
No shepherd's pipe-Arcadian strains;
No fabled tortures, quaint and tame.
