Alice Christiana Thompson Meynell Soul Poems

• 1. Soeur Monique
  A RONDEAU BY COUPERIN
  
  Quiet form of silent nun,
  What has given you to my inward eyes?
  ...
• 2. 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,
  ...
• 3. 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,
  ...
• 4. 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;
  ...
• 5. The Poet To His Childhood
  In my thought I see you stand with a path on either hand,
  --Hills that look into the sun, and there a river'd meadow-land.
  And your lost voice with the things that it decreed across me thrills,
  When you thought, and chose the hills.
  ...
• 6. Future Poetry
  No new delights to our desire
  The singers of the past can yield.
  I lift mine eyes to hill and field,
  And see in them your yet dumb lyre,
  ...
• 7. I Am The Way
  Thou art the Way.
  Hadst Thou been nothing but the goal,
  I cannot say
  If Thou hadst ever met my soul.
  ...
• 8. The Shepherdess
  She walks--the lady of my delight--
  A shepherdess of sheep.
  Her flocks are thoughts. She keeps them white;
  She guards them from the steep.
  ...
