Excerpt from The New Circe: Poems
The Veil
Long have we lain and watched with wearying eyes
The late light glimmer down the paling skies,
Till Night with drowsy finger on her lip
Shall softly slip,
And with low whispers of lost innocence
Hush all our innermost sense,
Pillowed between her bosom and quiet smile,
Till in a little while
Steals with unhurried plash of filmy oar
The silver ship of dreams,
Breasting its way over the airy deep,
And we shall hear the surge of wind-waves roar
Across the caverned, starry-pebbled shore,
Flying through spumy clouds and frosted gleams
That burst in moonlight on the patterned sky,
Voyaging, voyaging to lovely lands that lie
Calm and immeasurable beyond the argus veil of sleep.
