A VOYAGE TO CYPRUS
I ferried eastward, leaving Cythera, her wine,
Her temples of ivory, her boundless plains
...
I ventured out among crystals,
Invisible to all but God.
Passing through thoughts neither prosaic nor odd,
But feeling every good emotion,
...
One quiet eve
By a dark, gloomy lake
The wind did grieve
Pining to take
...
When every perfumed petal opens to the light,
In the turquoise air of our majestic sight,
Canticles play, and cathedral bells ring
Praising The Virgin; hail the end of suffering! -
...
SCARLET BREEZES
Scarlet breezes swirl through the square,
Beckoning us to come
...
The Bower
You fell asleep this morning,
Beneath the rarified glow of our castle’s tallest tower,
...
AUTUMN SHADE
What becomes of the summer's boon,
When the face of stars of longing gently mate,
...
THE AUTUMN LANE
By moss-clad benches, in the autumnal air,
Beneath the swaying myrtle trees,
...
Je respecte mon amour
Il n'est pas Juliette dont J'adore,
ni Beatrice, ni les propos ampoulés, étincelant
...
