Louis Untermeyer World Poems
- 1. Only Of Thee And Me
Only of thee and me the night wind sings,
Only of us the sailors speak at sea,
The earth is filled with wondered whisperings
Only of thee and me.
... - 2. Mockery
God, I return to You on April days
When along country roads You walk with me,
And my faith blossoms like the earliest tree
That shames the bleak world with its yellow sprays-
... - 3. How Much Of Godhood
How much of Godhood did it take-
What purging epochs had to pass,
Ere I was fit for leaf and lake
And worthy of the patient grass?
... - 4. Feuerzauber
I never knew the earth had so much gold-
The fields run over with it, and this hill,
Hoary and old,
Is young with buoyant blooms that flame and thrill.
