Francis William Bourdillon Bright Poems
- 1. The Night Has A Thousand Eyes
The night has a thousand eyes,
And the day but one;
Yet the light of the bright world dies
With the dying sun.
... - 2. Old And Young
LONG ago, on a bright spring day,
I passed a little child at play;
And as I passed, in childish glee
She called to me, â??Come and play with me!â?
... - 3. On The South Downs
Light falls the rain
On link and laine,
After the burning day;
And the bright scene,
... - 4. Eurydice
HE came to call me back from death
To the bright world above.
I hear him yet with trembling breath
Low calling, â??O sweet love!
... - 5. Night
The night has a thousand eyes,
And the day but one;
Yet the light of the bright world dies
With the dying sun.
... - 6. Here And There
'HERE'
Soft benediction of September sun;
Voices of children, laughing as they run;
...
