Francis William Bourdillon Earth Poems

  • 1.
    When Death from some fair face
    Is stealing life away,
    All weep, save she, the grace
    That earth shall lose today.
    ...
  • 2.
    Who knows the deeps, where the water sleeps
    Leagues from the light away?
    Who knows the heights, where myriad lights
    Fill heaven with endless day?
    ...
  • 3.

    Bold sailor on the sea?
    In earth or heaven,
    That you should die for me?
    ...
  • 4.
    HE came to call me back from death
    To the bright world above.
    I hear him yet with trembling breath
    Low calling, รข??O sweet love!
    ...
  • 5.
    An acorn swung
    On an oak-tree bough;
    So long it had hung,

    Oft had I felt, like pure Endymion,
    Such love for the sweet moon, that I had well
    Believed her able on earth to love and dwell
    With whatso man she set her love upon;

    Though by the wind made restless as the wind,
    By billows fretted and by rocks confined,
    So strong, so deep, so wide my love for thee.
    ...
