Song [Thou To Me Art Such A Spring]

________________________________________________
Title:     Song [Thou To Me Art Such A Spring]
Author: George Meredith [More Titles by Meredith]

Thou to me art such a spring
As the Arab seeks at eve,
Thirsty from the shining sands;
There to bathe his face and hands,
While the sun is taking leave,
And dewy sleep is a delicious thing.

Thou to me art such a dream
As he dreams upon the grass,
While the bubbling coolness near
Makes sweet music in his ear;
And the stars that slowly pass
In solitary grandeur o'er him gleam.

Thou to me art such a dawn
As the dawn whose ruddy kiss
Wakes him to his darling steed;
And again the desert speed,
And again the desert bliss,
Lightens thro' his veins, and he is gone!


[The end]
George Meredith's poem: Song [Thou To Me Art Such A Spring]
