THE GOLDEN THRESHOLD(18)
AUTUMN SONG Like a joy on the heart of a sorrow,The sunset hangs on a cloud; A golden storm of glittering sheaves, Of fair and frail and fluttering leaves,The wild wind blows in a cloud. Hark to a voice that is callingTo my heart in the voice of the wind: My heart is weary and sad and alone, For its dreams like the fluttering leaves have gone,And why should I stay behind? |
