Alice Christiana Thompson Meynell Secret Poems

• 1. To The Beloved Dead--a Lament
  Beloved, thou art like a tune that idle fingers
  Play on a window-pane.
  The time is there, the form of music lingers;
  But O thou sweetest strain,
  ...
• 2. To The Beloved
  Oh, not more subtly silence strays
  Amongst the winds, between the voices,
  Mingling alike with pensive lays,
  And with the music that rejoices,
  ...
• 3. To A Lost Melody
  Thou art not dead, O sweet lost melody,
  Sung beyond memory,
  When golden to the winds this world of ours
  Waved wild with boundless flowers;
  ...
• 4. The Moon To The Sun
  As the full moon shining there
  To the sun that lighteth her
  Am I unto thee for ever,
  O my secret glory-giver!
  ...
• 5. Sonnet--spring On The Alban Hills
  O'er the Campagna it is dim warm weather;
  The Spring comes with a full heart silently,
  And many thoughts; a faint flash of the sea
  Divides two mists; straight falls the falling feather.
  ...
• 6. In Early Spring
  O Spring, I know thee! Seek for sweet surprise
  In the young children's eyes.
  But I have learnt the years, and know the yet
  Leaf-folded violet.
  ...
• 7. Sonnet--to One Poem In A Silent Time

  This winter of a silent poet's heart
  Is suddenly sweet with thee, but what thou art,
  Mid-winter flower, I would I could divine.
  ...
• 8. To A Poet
  Thou who singest through the earth,
  All the earth's wild creatures fly thee,
  Everywhere thou marrest mirth.
  Dumbly they defy thee.
