Christina Georgina Rossetti Dream Poems

Where sunless rivers weep
Their waves into the deep,
She sleeps a charmed sleep:
Awake her not.
...

Once in a dream (for once I dreamed of you)
We stood together in an open field;
Above our heads two swift-winged pigeons wheeled,
...

Once in a dream I saw the flowers
That bud and bloom in Paradise;
More fair they are than waking eyes
...

Young Love lies sleeping
In May-time of the year,
Among the lilies,
Lapped in the tender light:
...

Hear now a curious dream I dreamed last night
Each word whereof is weighed and sifted truth.
...
