 | The Poems of Sir William Watson |  |
THE VOICE FROM DREAMLAND
Thy voice from inmost dreamland calls;
The wastes of sleep thou makest fair;
Bright o'er the ridge of darkness falls
The cataract of thy hair.
The wastes of sleep thou makest fair;
Bright o'er the ridge of darkness falls
The cataract of thy hair.
The morn renews its golden birth:
Thou with the vanquished night dost fade;
And leav'st the ponderable earth
Less real than thy shade.
Thou with the vanquished night dost fade;
And leav'st the ponderable earth
Less real than thy shade.
1889
